With the snap circuits, we can make electricity a more functional and teachable experience for students. Currently electricity is intigrated into all 3 levels of classes that we offer at Sycamore High School. While electricity has many dynamic parts, these snap circuits will allow the students to gain those basic understandings of the flow of Electricity. In a time when students are not allowed to share materials or work in the school buidling, this will create an excellent opportunity for them to still get a unique education. By sending these snap circuits home with the students, they can work at their own pace to complete the vairous circuits. Fortunately with the use of these circuits students will then advance through their education with that basic understanding of how the electrical circuit works. With each level getting more in depth, they can build on their previous experiences and further their knoweldge to build and design circuits.
