Lesson #1: Basic Circuitry

Using Little Bits parts to investigate circuits and develop input/

  • utput statements

Overview:

To understand how various input/output modes can affect an outcome in a circuit by:

Manipulatives are good for Kinesthetic Learners (Middle School)

Logic statements are good for forming complex circuits in codes and programming (High School)

Code /* switch

* * Each time the input pin goes from LOW to HIGH (e.g. because of a push-button * press), the output pin is toggled from LOW to HIGH or HIGH to LOW. There's * a minimum delay between toggles to debounce the circuit (i.e. to ignore * noise). * * David A.

Lesson #2: Graphite Potentiometers

Goal: To understand what a potentiometer is and what it does

Measure Variable Voltage

Or...

Measure Variable Resistance

slide-70
SLIDE 70

Lesson #2

Students get to create a circuit with graphite and then test its voltage or resistance using a voltmeter or LED.

Leads of Voltmeter are closest to source: Reading=6.15V from a 9V battery.

Leads of Voltmeter are farthest from source: Reading - 167.9mV from a 9V battery. Hook an LED to resistive layer (graphite) and see what happens...

Lesson #3: Exploring Graphite Potentiometers using ManyLabs Software

Goal: To learn how to interpret data and determine a relationship between two variables (i.e., light and voltage)

Set Up:

Dilution

Light Box

Arduino Set Up

Bare Conductive Paint

slide-72
SLIDE 72

Four Dilutions, two beakers per dilution by yourself = 20 minutes

Light Box Setup: I used a box 6”x10”x2.25” with ~ 1”x2” slot cut out at top and bottom, with a “tail” to set light sensor

Arduino Uno/Mega with Grove shield, and screw terminal to attach three alligator clips for your voltage sensor + connection for light sensor

Using an online software interface like ManyLabs www.manylabs.org

ManyLabs

Preparation: And...

slide-73
SLIDE 73

Example: Clearly marked “potentiometer” and sample ManyLabs reading

Results after five readings:

Possible Problem with results: Make sure students clearly label dilutions!

Note: Have a backup set of “control” painted strips so students can trouble shoot what went wrong if it didn’t work

Trouble Shooting:

  • 1. Mount for D.O. Sensor
  • 2. Plotting x, y, z for all samples
  • 3. Eccentricity of Z axis rod causes problems

with programming gcode for smooth run

  • 4. Getting D.O. Sensor to read
  • 5. Calibrating D.O. Probe
  • 6. Collecting Data
