  1. Raspberry Pi Training Truman College 10-21-14

  2. Goals of our Training Today • Unbox and boot up the Raspberry Pi (RPi) • Learn how to access the desktop graphical user interface (GUI) • Find the IP address for the RPi. • Access the RPi from another PC using PuTTYor the Mac’s Command Line • Use the terminal to load and run some simple programs. • Minecraft & Minecraft Hide and Seek • Learn to make the RPi a local web server. • See information being uploaded to it. • Learn to make increased use of the STEM Academy – Element14. • Additional Resources

  3. I want…and designing a need or a project. • Open source hardware and software gives you a wide range of possibilities for potential projects. • As a teacher, what kind of projects makes sense? • Will several students work on one device, or will I need several? • How does this relate to my educational goals? • Is this work that doesn’t need to get done? (work for the sake of work) • Relation to the NGSS – Engineering Practices

  4. I want a desktop internet radio • I like radio. • I like radio outside of Chicago. • I don’t like needing a computer to do it. • URLs • Streaming windows • No easy control over volume • I want a desktop device that will scan through pre-set internet radio stations.

  5. Turning on your Pi • Go through set up • Username – pi (default) • Password – raspberry (default) • Access the desktop – startx

  6. Find the IP Address of your RPi • In the Command line type • sudoifconfig • Make note of the IP address (10.22.25.40) • Knowing the IP address makes it possible for you to be able to control your computer from any other computer on the same network through a secure shell (SSH) or Putty.

  7. Minecraft • Double click on the Minecraft Icon • Open Terminal • Type • sudo apt-get install git-core (installs git core) • cd~ (returns you to your home directory) • git clone https://github.com/martinohanlon.minecraft-hs.git (downloads the program) • ls (list the contents of your new folder) • cd minecraft-hs (open folders) • python minecraft-hs.py (starts the program)

  8. Making a Local Web Server | Apache • In the terminal type: • sudo apt-get install apache2 • Open a web browser • Go to http://localhost or http://YO.UR.IP.ADDRE.SS • You should see a page saying, “It Works!” • In the terminal type • cd /var/www (changes your directory to the var/www folder) • ls (lists the items in your director) • sudonano index.html (opens the index.html file with the nano program)

  9. Glow Stick Results - Photoresistor

  10. Some Projects You Will Need to Try No additional Circuits Required Additional Sensor/Circuits Required Temperature Sensors – Use the RPi to collect temperature information. Photography – Use a camera board to take time lapsed photos. Adafruit Make Magazine RaspberryPi.org STEM Academy • Making a Local Web Server – Use the RPi to host a website locally in your classroom. • Universal Translator – Using the RPi and a USB headset to make a program that translates between two languages. • Pi Minecraft – Load Minecraft and manipulate the game’s code to customize the game.
