Prac 2 needs to be written up (see outline).
Consider still using python as an introduction to concepts such as threading and interrupts.

Troubleshooting for WiFi and basic network connectivity exists, but this assumes correct Ethernet configuration. Add some more debugging information, such as the LED status indicators.

Lead students to configuring wifi as a hotspot. Later, students can connect to the RPi via their phone or laptop. Consider using wpa_supplicant configs/ifconfig commands/phyton dbus script

A brief guide on cross-compilation has been added in commit 9e2d4a5. Complete the file, adding an explanation on the toolchain, compilation and make files.

Have a code example for interrupts in Python and C

Add screenshots to sections of the manual where there may be confusion.

Add a section detailing SCP (currently marked as a TODO)

Add configuration instructions for Ubuntu/Linux (for example in the Static IP section)

Create a two node cluster between two RPis with one master RPi telling the other slave RPi what to run. Provide the students with commands to do this with explanations.

Write a guide for threading in C/C++ and Python

Prac 1 needs to include students using Git. Perhaps a more detailed walk through is required.
