This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to build and examine a basic electrical circuit.

In this activity, learners explore electronic communication, the Morse Code system, and advances all the way through text messaging. Learners build a simple circuit, send messages to one another.

In this activity, learners explore how a flashlight works, showing the electric circuit and switch functions of this everyday household item.

In this electrochemistry activity, young learners and adult helpers create a battery from a potato to run a clock.

In this activity, learners explore an everyday situation, where either of two or more buttons can ring a buzzer.

In this activity, learners construct wands that play different notes depending on information from light sensors programmed via a PICO Cricket.

In this activity, learners explore electronics and motion by making a Scribbling Machine, a motorized contraption that moves in unusual ways and leaves a mark to trace its path.

This is an activity that demonstrates how batteries work using simple household materials. Learners use a pickle, aluminum foil and a pencil to create an electrical circuit that powers a buzzer.

In this activity about electricity, learners imagine that they are out in the wilderness and it is getting dark. Their task is to use the materials supplied to build a simple flashlight.

In this technology activity, learners build an "alarming" doormat to keep siblings out of their rooms. Use this activity to teach learners about circuits, switches, and sensors.
