This lesson is based on Studio 5’s “Eco House” model. Available at: https://www.scopesdf.org/scopesdf_lesson/eco-house/
Students learn about the IPO principle and how some new electronic components work. Using this knowledge, they build a model of an automated lighting system for a house from a given circuit diagram. The learning progress is assessed at the end of the lesson with a kahoot.
1- Pre-cut paper house. –> LINK
2- Conductive Tape.
3- Transistor.
4- Resistors.
5- Batteries.
6- LED’s.
7- LDR.
8- Presentation
I learned that it is probably easier for trained pupils to create electrical circuits by soldering except for using conductive tape. Conductive tape is a great alternative though for those who haven’t learned it yet.
Students listen to you presentation and take notes especially about the components.
Listen to the presentation and take notes.
Students get sheet with the circuit and a ist of the components.
Cut the sheet for the house and use the conductive tape to build the circuit. It works when LEDs glow while LDR gets no light.
If they don’t, check the connections or turn the potentiometer.
Students answer the questions in the kahoot. Link: https://create.kahoot.it/details/cc7045b7-2fb0-498f-a8f5-f71449702413
