Genie Microcontrollers offer students a fantastic array of inventive opportunities to develop a broad range of projects. Students are able to use their imagination and solve real life problems with these low cost PIC's, however managing a classroom full of students who all want to develop different circuits can be a challenge.
I developed the Genie how 2 book in order to give students the opportunity to independently create their own circuits with minimal teacher support.
The students start by creating a basic Genie E18 circuit (I have found this to be the most versatile and best value for money). The student then use the guide to show them how to add whichever input and output components that they choose.
Students can follow the guide to create a PCB layout and to create a flow chart to program their microcontroller.
I have found this to be a very effective tool within my classroom and it encourages differentiation and independent learning.
I hope you find the guide as useful as my students do.

Design Technology Electronic System Diagrams Design Component Information Cards and Activities
This resource is aimed at helping students to understand how to develop systems diagrams and which components will best suit the needs of the design brief. The starter activity introduces the concept of systems diagrams and asks students to correctly identify Input, Process and Output components. The students are then given the information cards and asked to select suitable components to meet the design briefs. I created this resource having taught electronic products for years and finding that I needed a way to make the principles behind the development of systems ideas more intuitive. In addition to
