As an integral part of our school programs, we offer six STEM classes to a group of 180 wonderful 7th and 8th grade students who absolutely love engaging hands-on STEM projects.
I feel so blessed to have a group of learners that are so excited and ready to learn to prepare themselves for the 21st century’s high tech careers.
They always exhibit excitement and enthusiasm when they work on their STEM projects, especially when they get to program electronic sensors and integrate them into their own designs.
The students even inspire me! Their attitudes make me work harder to find and bring new, exciting, and meaningful STEM projects to class so they can explore and integrate science, math, technology, and engineering skills in their learning.
My Project
My students need a class set of 35 nRF24L01s, their breakout adapter wireless modules, micro-controllers, and other wiring materials so they can learn how to program a wireless device along with an Arduino microcontroller and use these devices for wireless applications to their other STEM projects.
I have chosen this project because it will give my students weeks and months of learning many valuable skills:
1) They will learn how electronics components work.
2) They will learn how to set up an external circuit using electronics components with sensors and control their circuit with an Arduino microcontroller
3) They will learn how to program an Arduino microcontroller and nRF24L01+ modules to control other physical objects wirelessly.
4) They will use these devices for wireless applications of their many other STEM projects.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student STEM skills, you will ultimately help to prepare them for the 21st century’s high tech careers.
