Electronics Lab

In each hands-on lab, students learn how modern solid-state electronics work by building live circuits with transistors, resistors. and capacitors. The function of these basic electronic components is revealed as students dim lights with resistors, flash lights with capacitors, turn lights on and off with a transistor and a balloon, and make buzzers buzz with water, light or a handshake.

This program supports Colorado Model Content Standards for Science 1, 2.
