This workshop introduces some of the underlying science about how circuits — an important part of all digital technologies — work.
We will discuss the concepts of voltage, current, resistance and series/parallel circuits. Participants will have an opportunity to perform a hands-on experimental activity, working with equipment to make their own circuit and test the theories discussed.
This session will provide a useful introduction to circuits for anyone interested in the topic; particularly recommended for STEM students who are interested in circuits but have not yet taken physics or other electronics-related courses.
Presented by Wynona Wan, NFCDS Pedagogy Fellow, graduate student in the Department of Physics
