For homework, you have two tasks.
To use your Arduino, you will need to install the software.
http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
Go ahead and install version 1.5.7 BETA.
First, download ArduBlock. We are using a cutting-edge version. This downloads a file called ardublock-beta-20140828.jar.
Once you have downloaded it, follow the installation instructions. Pay attention to detail, go slowly, and you should achieve Great Success.
Finally, you have some practicing to do. Specifically, I want to get you thinking about sequence of operations, looping, and other concepts that will be essential to programming the Arduino.
Linked here is a new tool for introducing these concepts, which is (admittedly) a bit cute.
Work your way through the first set of exercises (roughly 7).
There are three reflection questions posted that you an answer directly in Moodle.
