Description
Raspberry Pi Network Soundboard Project – Engage Your Students with Real-World IoT!
Empower your students to build their own network-controlled soundboard using a Raspberry Pi. This hands-on project integrates HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, Python, and SQL, challenging students to create a fully interactive webpage that plays sounds directly from a Pi, accessible from any device on the network. Students will learn to build secure login systems, dynamic sound controls, and real-time sound uploads—all in one engaging project.
Real-World Application – Teaches web development, backend integration, and IoT concepts.
Complete Package – Includes project instructions, requirements, and a detailed rubric.
Modular Design – Perfect for Computer Science, STEM, and Robotics courses.
Get your class coding, creating, and exploring the possibilities of networked IoT with the Raspberry Pi Network Soundboard Project!
I should note, that I did design this project because my students kept using AI to do the simple projects. I wanted to show them they needed to actually understand how to code because AI can't do full projects without a lot of help. I let them us AI for this project but they have to have EVERYTHING working to get a full grade. That is why there are not a lot of directions with this project. Also, the rubric link is at the bottom of the page.
