Sparkfun Electronics Comes to VT – Teaches our Teachers

Jeff Branson from SparkFun

On April 17 +18, 2012 Jeff Branson of SparkFun conducted workshops in Burlington, Vermont. These workshops taught our teachers approaches to conducting classes on the Arduino micro controller. We are very thankful to both Jeff and to SparkFun for their generosity and for helping us plan our educational program.

SparkFunis a passionate company with a DIY spirit very much aligned with Vermont’s independent streak. They offer special education pricing to schools and do workshops all over the country. They also have a great website, check it out! Thank you Jeff, for coming to Vermont!

Also a big thank you to Laboratory B and to Champlain College’s MFA in Emergent Media Program for providing space for the workshops.

We look forward to working with our friends at SparkFun Electronics on many more projects!
