Interested in joining St. Petersburg College’s Robotics Club?<\/p>\n

Clubs are one way the College of Computer & Information Technology<\/u><\/a> (CCIT) strives to stimulate student interest in information technology. One professor who is piloting a Robotics Club is CCIT Professor Adrian Tillman. Tillman has been with the college since fall 2011. Previously a lead software engineer and developer in the public sector, Tillman brings a wealth of technology experience to SPC students. He has also acquired experience working with desktop applications, where he configured mobile devices and dealt with a host of programming languages such as PYTHON.<\/p>\n

Robotics Club sign ups<\/h2>\n

Though many expressed interest, thus far three students have signed up for the Robotics Club: Erick Bravo, Andrew Case and Jerome King. They are among several students who receive tutoring for programming courses with Adrian Tillman at the St. Petersburg\/Gibbs Campus on Friday afternoons from 1-5 p.m.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Professor Tillman is the best instructor. His involvement with students and his depth of knowledge inspire me to learn more,” said Erick Bravo, who is enrolled in the Computer Programmer Certificate Program <\/a>at SPC.<\/p>\n

Jerome King, who is also pursuing an IT degree agreed with Andrew\u2019s sentiments. \u201cI am in my first course for computer programming and I feel that this is just the start of what can carry me leaps and bounds and sharpen my critical thinking skills,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

This is not the first time a launched club has garnered great interest in information technology. In fall 2011, CCIT Professor Brad Yourth of the Clearwater Campus introduced a Computer Club. The club was designed to help students explore computer programming languages, programming robotics and X-Box games.<\/p>\n

Tillman is very enthusiastic about the progress of the club. He plans to involve students in more club events in the future. <\/strong>For more information about the Robotics Club, contact Professor Adrian Tillman on twitter at @proftill<\/u><\/a> <\/strong>or email him at Tillman.Adrian@spcollege.edu<\/u><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
