Course Review


1. What is your favorite homework?
Most of the homework are very interesting but the one I like the most is the final project. It servers as the summary of this course, combine Processing with Arduino, software with hardware to make our dream game. It was a very wonderful experiences for me.

2. What did you learn in this course?
I have learnt the basic and advanced techniques of Processing and Arduino. They are both very interesting, they make me become more creative. I'm glad I took this course even if I didn't get any credits due to school's policy

3. What did you change after this course?
I thought to design a game and to design hardware (gamepad, etc...) is difficult but after taking this course I know that it's not that difficult, all I need is being creative and patient.

Course review

1. What is your favorite homework?
My favorite homework is the final project, which I am required to combine physical devices with programs. The program itself includes the combination of Arduino and Processing. In the project, I am able to throw out my creativity on creating an unique, user-friendly, compact controller device. Besides, making it works by connecting to Arduino board and to the program.

2. What did you learn in this course?
I have the opportunity to learn how to integrate Processing and Arduino into a single program. Apart from that, I have also learnt how a physical device works with the program. This course is exciting and interesting. The most interesting part from learning in this class is to learn drawing graphics on Processing. This knowledge is new for me. So, I have learnt a lot from it.

3. What did you change after this course?
This course has stimulated my creativity and logic, as well as cooperation in order to build a great, interesting, creative program. I have understood the technical way to produce graphics, which is so awesome. Taking this course has widen my knowledge about computing especially in programming and graphics, as well as integrating them with devices.

Review by Terry


1. What is your favorite homework?
I was interested in the electronic drawing board which was homework4. At the beginning I could't imagine
how to make it and then finally I made own my board that looks like real painting board on window 7.
In addition to that, fortunately It helped to understand how it works.

2. What did you learn in this course?
I can make any application by processing and arduino because I have learned about how to use program which I used to and how to control. However, I thought need to make sense to do each homeworks and add more functions with application.
Even though I am not a hardware engineer, I can control Arduino board easily with software which I have learned in the class. Moreover, when I had any problem, I tried to find a way to slove it with example on website. I think
their supporting is very nice for beginner.

3. What did you change after this course?
Actually to control the hardware is difficult for software engineer like us. because last semester, I took the
Micro-controller class with classmates. All of them said it is not easy and difficult to understand. But this, arduino,
is really awesome and any software engineer can control anything what he want to do. Later I hopefully want to buy new arduino board and I will make some application or kit useful at my house.

1. What is your favorite homework?

My favorite homework was the final project( Hit the more), because I think it was very creative activity to the final project to make a piece of work applying Arduino related to Processing. That makes me more easily to understand and apply it to my final project.

     
2. What did you learn in this course?

I’ve learned in this course how to use Arduino and Processing and how to apply to each of those to one combining. After took this course, I can be able to make up the work using what I learn by myself. Further, I get ability to apply those programming to what I want to make some device applying to personal things.

 
3. What did you change after this course?

After taking this course, I’ve being been more creative and get a desire for using this one to make another things what I’ve though before.

This one was very useful and interesting course. If I get a chance more in detail to take this one I will take it.

Course Review


1.       I really liked the final project named “Fishing Game”. The reason being that the project combines Arduino and Processing Applications together. Moreover, I had an opportunity to design my own simple buttons made out of cushions and wires. Now the project has given me an idea to purchase my own Arduino processor for practice back at home.

2.       I have learnt so many things in this course; these include drawing using processing, making clickable buttons in processing, making colours, creating fonts, importing pictures in processing, resizing pictures, blinking LEDs using Arduino board, designing flushing or colourful lights, animations in processing, include music in the processing code, making a door bell,  making a piano buttons, sound frequencies, combining processing and arduino applications. Most of all, I learnt how to design my own circuit board by using wires, resistors, buttons, speakers, and LEDs, which is hooked to arduino board.

3.       This course was the most awesome and interesting course out of all my entire four years in the University. This is because I realize that you can do almost anything with Processing and Arduino combined together. Secondly, it improves one’s programming skills. Thirdly, the course should be done in atleast two semesters so that students may do more complex things. Generally, this course makes a bright future for students.
