00:01 | Hello, Welcome to the spoken tutorial that explains about supplementary material. |
00:08 | In this tutorial we will learn how to use the components that come along with a spoken tutorial. |
00:16 | These are |
00:18 | Instruction sheet |
00:20 | Installation sheet |
00:22 | Code files |
00:24 | Assignment and |
00:26 | Additional reading material |
00:30 | This tutorial is recorded on |
00:33 | Ubuntu Linux 18.04 operating system and |
00:38 | Firefox web browser |
00:41 | You can use any OS or web browser of your choice. |
00:46 | Spoken Tutorial project promotes the teaching and learning of various FLOSS. |
00:53 | FLOSS stands for Free/Libre and Open Source Software. |
00:59 | All FLOSS taught using spoken tutorials are usually recorded on Ubuntu Linux OS. |
01:07 | But most Spoken Tutorials can be used on all operating systems. |
01:14 | Linux operating systems are free and open source. |
01:19 | Additionally, we use either Firefox or Google Chrome web browsers. |
01:25 | We recommend these web browsers instead of Internet Explorer, even on Windows OS. |
01:33 | Internet Explorer gives some display inconsistencies when playing spoken tutorials. |
01:41 | Hence it is not recommended to use it. |
01:44 | Open Firefox web browser and in the address bar type spoken hyphen tutorial dot org |
01:53 | The Homepage of Spoken Tutorial website opens. |
01:58 | I’ll show a demo on supplementary material available for a tutorial. |
02:04 | I’ll select the FOSS name as Arduino and the language as English. |
02:10 | Click on the Search button. |
02:13 | We can see the list of tutorials available in the Arduino series displayed here. |
02:20 | This is the recommended sequence for learning the topics on Arduino. |
02:26 | Ideally all learners should follow this sequence and not omit any topic. |
02:32 | Spoken tutorials are usually segregated into Basic, Intermediate and Advanced levels. |
02:39 | This is based on the difficulty level of the topic. |
02:43 | However, some FLOSS series may have only 1 or 2 difficulty levels. |
02:50 | Come back to the Arduino page. |
02:54 | In Arduino, we have Basic level and Intermediate level tutorials. |
03:00 | Let me click on the topic “First Arduino Program”. |
03:05 | Below the video player, we can see links for Instruction and Installation sheet. |
03:12 | Before proceeding to learn any FLOSS, the learner must read the Instruction sheet. |
03:18 | Click on the Instruction sheet link. |
03:21 | This sheet contains information such as |
03:24 | How to download the spoken tutorials for offline learning |
03:29 | Procedure to practice the tutorials |
03:33 | General instructions about how to practise a tutorial using side-by-side method of learning |
03:40 | Which topic to start with and a few important things in some specific topics |
03:47 | How to save your work if you are using a lab computer |
03:52 | How to use the Code files and do the Assignments and |
03:57 | General instructions for Windows users, if any. |
04:02 | Here, tutorials that need Internet connection to download any package are also mentioned. |
04:09 | Switch back to the main window. |
04:12 | Next we will click on the Installation sheet link below the video player. |
04:18 | To install the software, follow the steps given in the Installation sheet. |
04:24 | In this sheet, follow the instructions to install the software for your OS. |
04:33 | Next we will see how to use Code files.
Switch back to the main window |
04:39 | Below the video player, on the right side you can see a link for Code files. |
04:46 | If you have a small screen, then scroll below the video player to see the Code files link. |
04:54 | Code files contain the source code that is used in that particular tutorial. |
05:00 | Click on the Code files link to download the zip file. |
05:04 | Locate the Code files zip file and extract the files on your machine. |
05:10 | Make a copy and use them while practising. |
05:14 | Let me show you a demo on an Ubuntu Linux machine. |
05:19 | Click on the Code files link below the video player.
A pop-up window opens. |
05:26 | Click on the Save file option and then click on the Ok button. |
05:31 | The Code files get saved in my Downloads folder as a zip file. |
05:37 | Right-click on the file and select Extract here to extract the files. |
05:43 | Double-click and open the extracted folder. |
05:47 | Locate the code file BlinkLED.txt and click once on it. |
05:54 | Make a copy by pressing Ctrl + C and then Ctrl + V keys. |
06:01 | Name the copy as BlinkLED hyphen copy dot txt or any other name of your choice. |
06:10 | Now, open the code file BlinkLED hyphen copy dot txt in any text editor of your choice. |
06:18 | This is the source code that we have explained in the tutorial “First Arduino Program” |
06:25 | You are expected to practice the same code in Arduino IDE. |
06:31 | Copy the code. |
06:33 | Open the Arduino IDE. |
06:37 | Paste the code. |
06:40 | Now compile and run the code as explained in the tutorial, to see the output. |
06:47 | It will work as we have demonstrated in the tutorial. |
06:52 | Feel free to modify the code, with different values or with new instructions. |
06:58 | At any time, if you encounter any error, then discard the copied file. |
07:04 | Make a fresh copy and modify the code as per your requirement. |
07:11 | Next let us learn how to use the Additional reading material link. |
07:17 | Below the Code files link, we can see a link named as Additional reading material. |
07:24 | It includes extra information about either the commands or components or some detailed explanation OR |
07:35 | information about common errors and their solutions. |
07:40 | Let me show a demo. |
07:43 | At 4:45 of the topic “First Arduino Program”, we have specified an error. |
07:51 | “You may get an error while uploading” is the error we have mentioned. |
07:56 | How will you resolve this error while practicing? |
08:00 | We have asked to refer to the Additional reading material link for solutions. |
08:06 | Let us check this. |
08:07 | Click on Additional reading material link below the video player. |
08:12 | The file will open in a new page. |
08:15 | Read the instructions carefully and rectify the error by yourself. |
08:21 | Next we will learn about Assignments. |
08:25 | Switch back to the main window |
08:28 | Below the video player, on the right side you can see the link for Assignment. |
08:35 | Click on that link. |
08:37 | Follow the instructions given in the Assignment and practice by yourself. |
08:43 | This will help you to become more fluent with the topic. |
08:47 | Please note: Assignments are given only for your self-assessment.
You are not required to submit these anywhere. |
08:57 | That’s all we have in this tutorial. Let us summarize. |
09:02 | In this tutorial we learnt about various components that accompany a spoken tutorial. |
09:09 | These are Instruction sheet, Installation sheet, Code files, Assignment and Additional reading material |
09:18 | The video at the following link, summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project.
