WHM - 15/20
Need more reflection - add paragraph on back and forth with me on mis-ordering (wrong/incomplete links - why?; mismatch / rejection of SD card reader; what you think now about procurement - not as easy as you think?) Revise and resubmit.
WHM - 20/20 (2/28/17)
This week, I began a new project. This new project is the Raspberry Pi Airplay Receiver. In this project, I will be using Raspberry Pi to create a speaker than can be used through airplay. This week, I have started to order parts and get acclimated to raspberry pi. In order to complete this project, I have been using a make magazine Article to guide me through the process step by step. I started this process when I compiled a parts list. It thought it would be easy. All I had to do was list the product name, the price and the link to the certain product. Problem is sometimes I had the wrong product. Before I wrote sleeve to read SD Card, I had a mini SD Card Reader and an incorrect link. I changed it and now it directs to the right place. Also, I wanted to use a normal SD card but the circuit board I was given only fit mini SD card. So I had to improvise and am ordering a sleeve to read the card. And for the Ethernet Cable/Jack, I don't know which one to order. There are so many different ones and I have no clue which is the correct one. So this project may be about Raspberry Pi. But I am learning a whole lot more than that already.
This is the Raspberry Pi model i am using.
This is the parts list for my project. Normally, I would need the SD card and the correct
model of the Raspberry pi but my school ahd another model that I hope will work.
These are the project steps. And here is the link to this web page
