Electronics Lab (Grades 3-8)
Ever wonder how a bank alarm sounds? Or how that switch in your living room can change the brightness of the light with the simple turn of a knob? In this hands-on program, students will work together to learn how modern solid-state electronics work by building live circuits using electronic circuit boards and wires. The functions of basic electronic components are revealed through a series of experiments as students figure out how to create circuits that light up LEDS, sound buzzers, use resistors to dim lights, and use switches and buttons to complete series and parallel circuit challenges.
