|-
|| '''Slide 1'''

'''Title Slide'''
|| Welcome to this Spoken Tutorial on '''Introduction to Electroblocks'''.
|-
|| '''Slide 2'''

'''Learning Objectives'''
|| In this tutorial, we will learn:
* How to use '''Electroblocks user interface''' to learn block coding

|-
|| '''Slide 3'''

'''System Requirements'''
|| To record this tutorial, I am using:
* Ubuntu Linux OS version 22.04
* Google Chrome browser and

A working internet connection to use Electroblocks.
|-
|| '''Slide 4 '''

'''Prerequisites'''
|| To follow this tutorial, you should have a basic knowledge of: * How to use a computer and '''Google Chrome''' web browser

|-
||Only Narration.
||Let us open the '''Electroblocks website''' using '''Google''' '''Chrome '''web browser.
|-
|| Open browser

Type '''Electroblocks'''

Open Electroblocks website

'''https://electroblocks.org/'''
|| In the search bar, type '''Electroblocks''' and press '''Ente'''r.

Open the first link that appears on your screen.

This will take you to the homepage of the '''Electroblocks '''website.
|-
|| Cursor on the web page.

Show the Arduino code.
|| The electroblocks website helps you to learn the '''Arduino '''coding using''' block '''method.

Website uses a block coding method to execute an Arduino code.

It also generates an '''Arduino''' code, allowing users to upload it to '''Arduino''' hardware easily.
|-
|| Cursor on the user interface.
|| Let us introduce ourselves to the user interface of the '''Electroblocks''' platform.
|-
|| Hover the cursor through these options
|| On the left hand side of your screen, multiple options of conditional loops are available.

For example. '''Logic,''' '''Loops''', '''Math''', '''Message''', '''Time''' and others.

|-
|| Click on the '''Add-ons''' option.

Click on the '''Sensors''' option.
|| Below you can see '''Add-ons''' and '''Sensors''' menus with various options.

The '''Add-ons '''dropdown list provides components like, '''Bluetooth''', '''LED''', '''RGB LED''' and others.

Multiple sensors compatible with '''Arduino board''' are available in the Sensors menu.
|-
|| Highlight the working space of blocks
|| This central part is used to build a block logic to execute a program.
|-
|| Highlight Arduino connection with breadboard using a box

Point to the simulation button
|| On the right hand side of the screen, a visual representation of the '''Arduino''' is given.

Here, an''' Arduino''' is connected to a''' breadboard''' to provide a voltage of +5V and ground(GND) wires.

A play button is available below the '''Arduino '''setup to start the simulation.
|-
|| Point to the toolbar.
|| Now let us focus on the toolbar at the top of the screen.
|-
|| Click on second option on the toolbar(</>)
|| Here, you can see the '''Arduino C++ '''code generated automatically in the backend.

This code helps the user to execute the experiment using the hardware components.
|-
|| Click on the third option on the toolbar.
|| The '''electroblocks '''platform provides a feature to upload the code to Arduino hardware.

Now connect the '''Arduino''' to your system.
|-
|| Show the image of the arduino connected to the system.

highlight the connection icon

Click on connection icon.
|| The '''electroblocks '''platform provides a feature to upload the code to Arduino hardware.

Now connect the '''Arduino''' to your system.

Click on connection icon.
|-
|| Point to the list of options.

Select the port where Arduino is connected Click on the '''Connect''' button.

Highlight the upload button.

Click the '''Upload''' button.

|| A list of available port connections will appear.

Select the port where Arduino is connected and click on the '''Connect''' button.

Once the connection is established, click on the '''Upload''' button.

The Arduino code will be uploaded onto the '''Arduino''' board.

|-
|| Point to the message.

Click '''OK''' to continue.
|| We get a pop up message after the code is uploaded.

Click '''OK''' to continue.
|-
|| Click on the sixth option.
|| The user can download the code or an entire project from this website.

The code will be downloaded as '''.ino''' file.

If you select to download the entire project, the project will be saved in an''' .xml '''file.
|-
|| Click on the fourth option.
|| Click on the''' Open File''' option.

From here you can open any saved projects from the '''electroblocks''' platform.
|-
|| Click on the fifth option.
|| Let’s click on the '''New File '''option to open a new blank project.
|-
|| Only Narration
|| New sensors and modules will be released with subsequent versions of Electroblocks.
|-
|| Only Narration
|| This brings us to the end of this tutorial.

Let us summarize.
