WHO: Any teacher in the Greater Sacramento Area

WHERE: Parallax Facility in Rocklin

WHEN: To be arranged by YOU!

Are you an educator in the greater Sacramento area? Have you heard about Parallax products but never found the time to get started, or do you currently use our products in class, but need new project or lesson ideas? The BASIC Stamp microcontroller module is a perfect onboard computer for robots and automating student projects. It’s also a great resource for STEM curriculum!

Parallax, Inc. is now offering a FREE pilot course at our Rocklin office for teachers interested in getting started with or furthering their BASIC Stamp knowledge and skills. Each course can seat up to 20 teachers, complete with equipment for hands-on learning. Choose from learning the basics with What’s a Microcontroller? or from more advanced topics using our Smart Sensors and Applications or Robotics with the Boe-Bot texts.
