Integrating Computer Science and Amateur Radio into your TEKS and After School Club
Monday June 9, 2025 9:45am - 10:45am CDT
Sabine
Our session shares how our WeTeach_CS Mini-Grant has allowed us to integrate coding skills in an innovative way with amateur radio.  This opportunity involves students from computer science and engineering classes as well as law and health science.   Students initially capture satellite data and upload it to a Raspberry Pi for analysis (coding).  Ultimately students build an antenna rotator and code it using an Arduino to automate the position of a small antenna tracking a weather satellite.  This project brings together technical knowledge and hands-on experience, while learning skills for job environments and community service opportunities.
