My students will use their Makey Makey kits to explore complete and incomplete circuits, applying this knowledge to improve the world around us in a meaningful way. Students will explore issues in the world around them, come up with solutions that can be solved through applied circuits connected with a program they design with MIT's Scratch program. Great examples of this are​ helping special needs students have better access to games looking at their mobility issues and helping someone with visual issues to become more independent with sensors. So not only are we learning great content for engineering, but we are becoming more aware of the issues around us.
