As part of an interdisciplinary lesson combining Robotics and Computer Science, Year 10 students had the opportunity to dive into the world of electronics using the Arduino platform. The lesson was led by teachers Maja Milosavljević and Strahinja Trninić, who guided students through the process of building their first simple circuit.
The aim of the lesson was to help students gain a practical understanding of key electronic components such as resistors, LEDs, wires, and power sources, and to explore how these elements work together within a circuit.
Students showed a high level of engagement throughout the whole lesson, particularly during the hands-on segment where they worked in teams to solve challenges and experiment with circuit assembly. The combination of theoretical knowledge and real-world application made for an exciting and educational experience, fostering both collaboration and creativity.
Lessons like this one are incredibly valuable, as they allow students to connect theoretical knowledge with real-world applications. They also promote problem-solving, teamwork, and independent thinking – skills that are essential for success in both academics and future careers.
