“If the presence of electricity can be made visible in any part of the circuit, I see no reason why intelligence may not be transmitted instantaneously by electricity.”
- Samuel F. B. Morse
It is unfortunate that electronics, that pervades every aspect of our lives today, does not rank high in the priorities of many of our school curricula. We intend to do our bit to bridge the gap.
In our Exciting Electronics workshops, students learn the essential basics by building different kinds of electronic circuits themselves. Completing a circuit using the required components and a manual is easy. Our goal, however, is to help students truly understand why the circuit works, what the role of each component is, how customizations can be done, and so on.
This program is conducted as a series of half a day sessions and is meant for students in grades 7 to 9.
The sessions are organized in increasing levels of difficulty. We start with simple electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, switches, etc. and then include semiconductors and ICs. Based on interest and demand, we could also progress to single-board computers such as Raspberry-Pi, and beyond.
