The Department of Electronics and Communications at Khwopa Engineering College recently conducted a two-day “Basic Electronics and Arduino Training” on December 2nd and 3rd, 2024, at the college premises. The training, designed to build foundational knowledge of electronic components and Arduino programming, also aimed to foster collaboration between senior and junior students through shared learning experiences.
The training sessions were initiated by students of the 7th semester and led by Rojish Twati, who provided comprehensive theoretical lessons and practical demonstrations. Supporting the event were dedicated volunteers Rashila Sainju, Kamal Bahadur Thapa, Kailash Chaudhary, Nitika Khadgi, Luniva Maharjan, and Pranisha Shrestha, who ensured smooth logistics and mentored participants throughout the sessions.
The 10-hour training covered a range of topics, beginning with an introduction to basic electronic components and progressing to hands-on exercises with Arduino, a popular microcontroller platform. Participants actively engaged in creating simple Arduino-based projects, such as blinking LEDs, controlling motors, and designing basic sensors. These practical exercises helped participants solidify their understanding of the concepts and gain confidence in applying their knowledge to real-world scenarios.
The event concluded with an interactive discussion, where participants shared their experiences and key takeaways from the training. The collaborative and interactive approach was widely appreciated, with attendees highlighting the value of teamwork and peer learning.
The training was deemed highly successful in achieving its objectives of enhancing technical skills and fostering a supportive academic community. Encouraged by the positive response, the Department of Electronics and Communications plans to organize similar sessions in the future to further develop the technical expertise of students at Khwopa Engineering College.
