Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

The "Introduction to Raspberry Pi" course is designed to help beginners explore the world of affordable computing and physical programming using one of the most popular microcomputers available today. Raspberry Pi offers a gateway to understanding computing, electronics, and programming in an engaging, hands-on manner. Whether you're a student, hobbyist, or tech enthusiast, learning to set up and work with Raspberry Pi opens doors to creating innovative projects while enhancing your technical problem-solving skills. This course begins with an introduction to the Raspberry Pi hardware, including how to install and configure the Raspbian OS using NOOBS. Next, learners are introduced to Linux and Python fundamentals, covering essential commands, control structures, and random functions. From there, the course progresses into physical computing by controlling LEDs and understanding GPIO pin programming. In subsequent modules, students will build and debug a number guessing game using Python and Raspberry Pi. Finally, the course wraps up with a creative hardware project—building a dancing Christmas tree light display—covering both circuitry and advanced LED pattern coding. Learners gain foundational skills in Linux, Python, and GPIO hardware control while developing real-world Raspberry Pi projects from start to finish.
