ELECTRONICS and SOLDERING The early stages require a one-to one supervision so I recommend a maximum of six participants per session.
Mass production techniques dominate the consumer market but there is a significant number of hobbyists and enthusiasts. I plan to introduce the skill of soldering and then diversify into circuit planning, construction and usage. For ease of use for this age group I will concentrate on “through-hole” architecture and components before moving on to some “surface-mount” circuitry. Due observance will be paid to safety by way of an introductory talk and the use of safe practises and protective equipment.
I have a selection of kits including doorbell, sound- operated switch, digital clock, ‘phone signal detector, digital dice, crystal radio, superhet am/fm radio, light sensor switch, etc
