2)   Scheduling office hours with us to discuss your progress and challenges

3)   The class bulletin published in the TQLOne space

...

The goal of this course is not to teach hardware or embedded software. The goal of this course is to teach software engineers to create IoT software applications.

...

2)   The assembled IoT Kit with software installed and pins plugged in (as an option if you with to buy from us).  If you come from a less technical background, we highly recommend that you get the assembled IoT Kit from us. For more information, go to this link.

 

4.    The hardware required seems expensive to me. What should I do?

...

6.    From where can I find documentation? How should I use documentation?

The TQL documentation as well as the tutorial materials are on this wiki.

You should fully utilize the documentation to learn about the constructs and concepts covered in the class sessions. This will be time well spent after the class. The wiki is searchable.

...

This is an engineering class for IoT. We teach IoT software development in TQL. If this is not your goal, there are some alternative goals you can set for yourself:

(1) Order the pre-assembled kit from Atomiton. Being able to run basic commands following instructions, import the tutorial projects and get  run them to run.

(2) Follow the classes and understand how architecturally each component work.

...

A final project is required to graduate from this class with a certification. If you will not be able to do or contribute to a mid-term and final project, please send me (Jane) a direct email or message and let me know.

 

14. If I am not able to spend enough time on this course, can I attend future classes?

...

We will ask you to demo your mid-term project to the class so that:

1)   We know (and you know) that you are on pace with the progress of the class

...

17. Why do I need to submit a final project?

We use the final project to assess that you have met the skill criteria to graduate and receive the TQL IoT Certificate.

In addition, your final project can be submitted for the TQLOne Competition.

 

18. The Wiki has more tutorials than covered in the class schedule. What should I do with them?

...

The TQLStudio (the IDE) is a cloud-based service. Anyone can access it for free.

 

20. Where would my data be stored?

When you download and run TQLEngine in your environment, your runtime data will be in your system, not on our cloud.

When you use TQLEngine TQLStudio to create your project, your project content (the models and queries definition, etc.) will be stored securely on our cloud. You can export your projects to local.

...

You can see the list of tutorials and their schedule here.

You can see the skill requirement here.

 

25. How often do you release TQLEngine?

Our release rhythm is once a month.

 

26. I tried to install TQLEngine and ran into errors. What should I do?

...

Yes, you certainly can. If you stay within the supported protocol families, it will be easier to integrate them. If you choose outside of the current supported protocols, you will need our help extending protocol handlers. In the learning phase, we recommend you stay with covered protocols. Once you get the skills, everything is possible.

...

(2) We provide code of a sample UI app (in tutorial  #10). You can use it and customize as UI for your project.

...

A total amount of $7,500 will be reward award to the top 3 winners in this competition. You can submit your same class project for this competition. The main participants are from Class1-3. More information is here.


30. Who has taken this course?

Engineers from Fortune 100 companies and from world's leading technology and industrial conglomerates have taken the course.
