PROGRAM

EXAMPLE PROJECTS
​Each session we guide the students step-by-step through a new project idea:

• Marble Run: Make a roller coster track to race a ping pong ball down and build an electronic score board to go with it!
• Crane: Build a mechanical crane that can swivel and use electronics to make the hook move up and down. Use it to lift as many items from the "building site" into the "scrap yard" as possible.
• Washing Line: Build an extendable washing line and use electronics to automatically retract the line if it gets too cold outside.
• Excavator: Build an excavator that can dig up the earth and an electronic warning system that lets you know if you've dug too far!
• Pinball Machine: Build a working pinball machine that lights up and makes noises when you hit the bumpers.
• Probability Machine: Create a randomiser and learn about probability as you keep track of which bucket the ball falls into after each drop.
• Cardboard Helmets: Build a cardboard helmet and "pimp" it up with littleBits.
• Fishing Game: Build an electronic fishing rod and see how many fish you can catch from the sea.
• Windmill: Make and decorate a windmill and make it spin
• Umbrella: Learn how the mechanism on an umbrella works and make your own
• Glider: Become a pilot and test fly your own glider.
