A classroom worksheet to learn about potentiometers and servos. A servo is different from a motor in important ways. It does nor continuously rotate when current is applied. Instead you can set the position of the rotor to any direction. This makes servos important in robotics, model aeroplanes and cars, for example. Arduino is a great option for teaching kids about programming, robotics, real-world computing and the like. Arduino boards are cost-effective which makes them ideal for use in schools. This workbook is designed with classroom teaching in mind, with printable worksheets that pupils can use to build projects in the classroom lab or workshop, as part of a program of teaching on electronics and coding.

This is a mini graphics activity, which can be used as a test or discrete activity.

This is a help sheet designed to help students assemble a transistor switching circuit. The circuit is made by cutting out the PCB layout on the vinyl cutter, the acid etching.

A complete booklet for a mechanical teaching aid. This has a biblical theme so is suitable for Christian or church schools. Constructive coments welcome, please email if you would like the Publisher original or TecSoft support files, Alex

This s a GCSE/A' level exam style question based on a camera. You could expand it to include some design ideas or CAD. I'm including the original full res. images in the publisher file - cause I'm a great guy :-/

A shading exercise - ideal as a HLT or cover sheet.

Shade and texture the tools, and write about them. Simples!

A worksheet or HLT for those of us doing a "bookends" project with a sustainability focus.

A textiles worksheet for KS3, for peeps doing the "hat" project.

This project uses a sound sensor module (which has two states true or False) to make lights flash and the girl dance when you clap or play music!

This Arduino UNO project uses a joystick to control an RGB LED. When the joystick is at a certain position, the LED changes colors. An RGB LED is a type of LED that can reproduce almost any colour. They are used in many applications such as LED matrix displays, home lighting, stage lighting and more. RGB LEDs have three internal LEDs (Red, Green, and Blue) that can be combined to produce almost any color output. In order to produce different kinds of colors, we need to set the intensity of each internal LED and combine the three color outputs. This worksheet is based on a common cathode RGB LED.

Light following sunflower. This is a great project for teaching about potential dividers. As the light falling on the LDRs changes, the voltage at pin AO changes, allowing the flower attached to the servo to follow the light. Arduino is a great option for teaching kids about programming, robotics, real-world computing and the like. Arduino boards are cost-effective which makes them ideal for use in schools. This worksheet is designed with classroom teaching in mind, with printable worksheets that pupils can use to build projects in the classroom lab or workshop, as part of a program of teaching on electronics and coding. Copy and paste the code from the activity from these slides into your Arduino IDE

Light Dependent Resistor light levels This is a great project for teaching about potential dividers. Pupils can see the LDR output in the serial plotter. As the light falling on the LDRs changes, the voltages change for each LED, giving a groovy wave effect. Extension work– add extra LEDs.
