During the course, teachers were taught how to program (code) and virtually simulate a basic 3-colour traffic light on TinkerCAD.
After learning the necessary skills, the teachers built a traffic light using a breadboard and electronic components, which were then physically tested.
Later the teachers learned how to code and transfer it to an Arduino circuit board that was used to control a servo motor and a light sensor.
This was simulated virtually and then physically tested.

The codes learned can be used in a line-following robot, which Edenglen High School hopes to integrate into the 2023 Grade Eight technology syllabus.
