However, I am trying to avoid programming because I do not have the time in the year to allocate teaching my students to program the system. If I have to I could program the microcontroller myself and have them follow some simple instructions to connect their system to the microcontroller but I want to avoid that if possible.
What's your time frame for this? This sounds like an awesome activity. Maybe we (growingSTEMS™) can help. Shoot me a PM and we can discuss this in more detail over email.
