For students in Grades 3-6, the Synth Kit helps them exhibit extra easy music creation while they simultaneously learn the ins and outs of circuitry through project-based play.
The littleBits Space Kit, developed in collaboration with NASA, brings an aspect of interactive exploration to problem-based learning. Designed for use in junior high and high school, the Space Kit is one of the more advanced kits in the littleBits progression, but definitely one of the most exciting to use!
Want to make the next big hit? Kits can do that with ease using the DIY Synth Kit from Technology Will Save Us! With the Synth Kit, students 12 and up can design and build a real musical instrument and tinker to create awesome electronic sounds. The kit lets them plug various components into the breadboard and experiment with creating sound.
Let’s blend art and light technology with Circuit Stickers! Circuit stickers are LED circuits in the form of peel-and-stick stickers. They enable students to build real circuits without soldering, plugging wires, or clips. Instead, students use the stickers and conductive tapes to draw their circuits on paper, adding an intriguing element to their crafts.
Want to build your own Top Secret Spy Box? Bubble-blowing bot? If you answered yes, then you need to get your hands on the littleBits Gizmos and Gadgets Kit! Designed for kids 8 and up and filled to the brim with LEGO-like, electronic building blocks, this kit will spark your child’s imagination and guarantee endless opportunities for inventing.
With the DIY Electro Dough Kit from Technology Will Save Us, children can build craft projects, and add electric elements. Picture being able to shape and create whatever your imagination desires and then really bring it to life by incorporating simplistic, interactive circuits. The Electro Dough Kit helps kids will learn how to place LEDs and buzzers in the path of currents!
Kids can draw circuits instantly and learn the basics of electronic principles with this no-mess conductive ink pen. I experimented with the Circuit Scribe Lite Kit, which comes with one conductive ink pen, two coin cell batteries and one Bi-LED module. The kit includes components like, motors, buzzers, resistors, and more.
Hands-on learning is taking our entire education world by storm. In almost every town and in almost every grade, instructors are ditching the lectures, ditching the desks and embarking on brand new kinds of more meaningful educational experience. And, do you know why? Because it really tends to work! Keep on reading and explore some of the best EdTech tools for this.
It can be a little daunting when first opening this kit from Tech Will Save Us—at least, I know I felt that way, but it’s actually a lot simpler than it looks. Following the instructions in the box, I was able to learn how to solder and combine the materials to make a real working speaker. I have no real expertise when it comes to crafting, but still got it built.
I love Snap Circuits and felt like it was such a cool way to learn circuits. It’s extremely simple to get started and the opportunities for crative design and application are everywhere. Its super easy to build all types of devices from lamps to alarms and the best thing is that there are literally hundreds more waiting in the three included guide books.
