 These digital manufacturing practices were composed of three sessions: These digital manufacturing practices were composed of three sessions:
  
-  - __Introduction to Arduino__\\ \\ Students get familiar with the basic theory: What is a microcontroller? What is Arduino (both boards and software)? What is the application?\\ \\ As examples for applications of digital fabrication, different FabAcademy final projects were shown. The final project, which is the Irrigation system, was explained.\\ \\ We made our first practice with an Arduino board: turning on and off, then blinking the built-in LED in different ways. Offline students were provided with an Arduino UNO board, Online students made it in TinkerCAD.\\ \\ +  - **Introduction to Arduino**\\ \\ Students get familiar with the basic theory: What is a microcontroller?

-  - __Introduction to Inputs and Outputs__\\ \\ For this practical session both offline and online students were guided to make and simulate in TinkerCAD circuits and codes for:\\ a. Fading LEDs.\\ b. Ultrasonic distance sensor and LEDs.\\ c. DC motor test.\\ Afterwards, the offline students were provided with electronics kits to replicate in reality the previous digital practice.\\ \\ //Note: this session had to be split into two days (first day for digital practice, second day for physical circuits).//\\ \\ +  - **Introduction to Inputs and Outputs**\\ \\ //This session had to be split into two days (first day for digital practice, second day for physical circuits).//\\ \\ __Day 1__:\\ For this practical session both in-person and online students were guided to make and simulate circuits and codes in TinkerCAD for:\\ a.

DC motor test.\\ \\ __Day 2__:\\ The in-person students were provided with electronics kits to replicate in reality the previous digital practice. An extra practice including a Capacitive soil moisture sensor was carried out. In the end, the students worked on making the circuit and code for the irrigation system.\\ \\ [[https://www.tinkercad.com/|TinkerCAD]] \\ \\ 
-  - __Introduction to 3D model and printing__\\ \\ At the beginning, the idea for practice was to make a case for the system; this idea was reevaluated and modified to make keychains due to it's easier to ensure and evaluate the activity of each student, also a case is something that can be just downloaded from the internet and we rather them to make something for themselves (or a relative).\\ \\ //Note: 3D printed parts are not shared here for privacy but have of course been evaluated and included in a final report//.+  - **Introduction to 3D model and printing**\\ \\ Both in-person and online students were taught the main 2D and 3D design commands in Fusion 360, as well as the implications of 3D printing including mechanism operation and print parameters using the Ultimaker Cura slicer and the Ultimaker S5 3D printer. \\ \\  //Note: In the beginning, the idea for practice was to make a case for the system; this idea was reevaluated and modified to make keychains because it's easier to ensure and evaluate the activity of each student, also a case is something that can be just downloaded from the internet and we rather them to make something for themselves (or a relative).\\ 3D printed parts are not shared here for privacy but have been, of courseincluded in a final report and evaluated.//\\ \\ [[https://ultimaker.com/software/ultimaker-cura|Ultimaker Cura - Slicing software]] \\ [[https://ultimaker.com/3d-printers/ultimaker-s5|Ultimaker S5 - 3D printer]] \\ [[https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/appstream|Download Fusion 360]] \\ [[https://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/courses/#fusion-360-fundamentals|Fusion 360 tutorial]]
