MAKE YOUR CODE DO SOMETHING IN THE REAL WORLD
Join FigLab for a free, hands-on Raspberry Pi workshop in Memphis. You’ll build a simple LED circuit and use Python to make it blink, with step-by-step guidance along the way.
Never coded or used a breadboard before? This workshop starts with the basics.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
• Get familiar with a Raspberry Pi, which a small computer you can use for electronics projects.
• Learn how GPIO pins connect your code to physical components.
• Wire a simple circuit using an LED, resistor, and breadboard.
• Run a Python program that turns your LED on and off.
The goal is simple: understand how your code controls the circuit you built.
WHO IT’S FOR
Students, curious adults, and anyone interested in trying coding and electronics. No previous programming or electronics experience is required.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
We provide the Raspberry Pi and electronic components for use during the workshop, along with guided instruction using FigLab.
