What would be a good next step for my students who have completed What's a Microcontroller and the BoeBot? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bill

:nerd: There are alot of ideas, here in the forum. People have initiated projects, and some have included the code. Anything
from interfacing to ?, servo controllers, quadcopters, etc. It would depend on the direction you want to go. The main
idea is to cruise the forum threads and target a project that you would like to do. Good Luck!

Hi Bill,

You could also check out some of the projects on our Learn.Parallax.com site. The Stamps in Class Mini-Project series has some great content you can use unmodified, or easily adapt to fit your own curriculum.
