. . SO, you are in EDUcation and you need a Logo which reflects Modern-EDU, Modern-LEARNing, grab this one! IF you are a student who learns to become a Teacher, EDUcator and/or if you are already on duty: when blogging and/or writing an article, sometimes one needs a logo or a “Word-Cloud” which represents […]
. . EDUcators, TEACHers, Instructors, LEHRENDE Online on SocialMedia Well, it is nice and necessary to see people from EDUcation online, BUT THE way they post, the mentality behind makes me worry!! Bringing in NEW stuff with an OLD, outdated pedagogical mentality, running the SAME way as usual; THAT can’t work!!! That reminds me […]
. . Make objects rotating with a Stepper-Motor | Tips and Tricks Well, in a previous tutorial <===> https://gustmees.wordpress.com/2018/09/19/halloween-project-with-skull-arduino-blinking-leds-and-scrolling-eyes-maker-makered-makerspaces/ <===> we created a Halloween Skull and it was fix, didn’t rotate. Fun? YES, BUT more fun when it is rotating by using a Stepper-Motor; looks then as it would observe, control the space around it 😉 And it is […]

. . LCD1602-I2C isn’t working. Well, I made some searches on the internet and I found the right answer on a forum about this error, which says that one should scan the I2C Address of the device and replace the “lcd.init();” by “lcd.begin (0x3F,16,2);” whereby “0x3F” is the I2C Address of my LCD1602/I2C module. I […]
