Everything you need to make run an amplifier project. Aimed at year 8 the PCB is made in school (circuit wizard file in zipped file). We use and MDF frame and glue the front and back into place. Unlike the kitronik version, my version has a switch and an LED within the circuit. This project in a box includes a class booklet, homework booklet, printable guide showing students how to populate the circuit and a weekly presentation that you can use to help students through the various steps. Images are used to show students exactly what they need to do. My students love the freedom of following the guide themselves. Also included is an interactive lesson about the components used in the mono amplifier. The resource includes information cards, a quiz book and a plenary.

Following on from my lesson on Fossil Fuels, this lesson explores renewable energy sources. Tarsia puzzle on fossil fuels used as a lesson starter and to recap previous lesson. Information cards provided for students about a range of renewable energy sources. Students to use post it notes to write down the advantages and disadvantages of each of the types of fuels (in groups, timed activity - suggested that each group has a different colour post-it note to ensure full participation) Animated suggested answers to be revealed after the activity then a class discussion about the answers Full instructions included on the slides. Slides animated for extra interest

Easy to follow lesson about smart materials. Range of information card for students giving detailed information about each of the smart materials shown on the cover slide. Student worksheet for them to independently research a range of smart materials. Wide range of lessons based upon the Eduqas specification available

This PowerPoint is to be used along with traffic light cards. Students should hold up the correct colour card to correspond with the correct answer. These questions are based on simple electronic principles, however you can edit the questions to suit your own requirements.

This PowerPoint is to be used with whiteboards. Students should be given either a resistor calculator wheel or chart, students will be shown the resistor with the first click, students work out the value of the resistors and present this on their whiteboard, the correct answer is then revealed with the next click of the mouse.

This project has everything you need to run a steady hand game project. Aimed at KS3 the class booklet introduces simple concepts such as resistance values and thyristor pin names. The booklet also covers designing, analysis of ideas and evaluating the final outcome. The homework booklet reinforces learning. There are also a range of extension tasks. You will find a week by week pictorial guide showing students what to do, there is also a pictorial circuit population guide that you can print off, I have them laminated so they can be reused time after time. Students really enjoy the freedom of being able to follow the guide themselves. I have included zipped 2D design files for the case and zipped PCB files compatible with circuit wizard that can be used to make your PCB's. My students love this project. I hope your do too.

This extensive resource includes a guide to creating an E-Textiles portfolio using a sketchbook and a presentation folder. Examples of every page and a description of what goes on the page. This example is based on an E-Textiles project, however it could be adapted to be used as a guide for any Design Technology project. Each page gives a detailed description of the page requirements plus examples including analysis of each stage.

Homework booklet aimed at year 10 and 11 students studying GCSE Design & Technology. Range of tasks including:- 555 Astable and Monostable calculations Market Pull/ Technology Push Fossil Fuels Renewable Energy Thermoplastics and Thermosetting materials Resistor values Logic Programming with flow charts plus many more Complements the various Design Technology lessons in my shop.

Full lesson with a wide range of activities around sustainability. This lesson looks at Carbon footprints, Product life cycles and finite / non finite resources. Students also explore the 6 R's. Full PowerPoint with instructions about use in the notes. Student worksheets to be printed. 15 pages of activities/ worksheets.

This resource includes component information cards giving component information for the components used in the mono amplifier circuit. There is a student quiz booklet that can be used by students individually or in pairs. Students can use the information cards to find the answers to the questions in the quiz booklet. Also included is an answer reveal section for the booklet and a traffic light plenary quiz.

PowerPoint presentation including 51 slides with 51 circuit symbols and component names. Can be edited to include only the symbols that you wish to teach/ test students on. Can be used in a number of ways:- - As an on screen show with student individual whiteboards in order to test students knowledge - As classroom posters to prompt students regarding the various components - As a notes document so students can independently research the function of the components If you like this file please give a positive review.

My students love this marble maze project as an interesting introduction into microcontrollers. Based around the Genie CO8 Microcontroller the circuit uses LDRs to identify when a marble drops down the holes in the maze. Here I have uploaded the Scheme of works, a student E-Portfolio and homework booklet, and a weekly teachers How 2 to be placed on screen. The E-Portfolio also includes full instructions for the student about what is required and where. Circuits wizard and 2D design files are available upon request at Nicoladuty@gmail.com, however the files are the wrong format to be added directly onto the site. I hope your students enjoy this project as much as mine do. Please feel free to E-Mail me to request PCB and CAD files, simply specify the files you want and the name of the project.

This resource provides students with a range of circuits for them to develop using Circuit Wizard, then investigate the circuit properties and answer questions about the function of the circuits. The resource helps to build a greater understanding of the function of the individualcomponents and the circuits as a whole.

I use these activities as extension tasks for students who finish ahead of schedule, but they also help to bring elements of literacy and numeracy into electronics. There are 11 tasks in total including cross words, adding resistor values, ohms law calculations and sorting words into nouns, verbs and adjectives. I hope you find something useful in this little pack of activities. The numeracy based questions include examples for students to follow.

18 steps to creating a PCB. Print and cut out the steps. Students to sort the steps into the correct order. If you like this simple, free starter activity then take a look at my TES shop for a range of Free and Paid resources. Like my page of Facebook ElectroNic DTTeacher

Good as a silent starter this component recognition worksheet is based upon the AQA Electronic Products Specification. The worksheet challenges students to name some of the less obvious components and also state if they are polarised. As the Design Technology Specification has changed and students are required a much broader knowledge this starter can help teachers with minimal subject knowledge to introduce electronics to students. This resource is free. There are many more resources for you to enjoy, some free, some payable. Please enjoy.

Resource aimed developing students knowledge and understanding of the operation of Thyristors and Transistors. Students should fill in the blanks to further their knowledge and understanding.
