Help me give my students the proper tools to explore electrical circuits in a math intensive digital electronics class.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. H.'s classroom raised $441

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students are from all over DC, and they have very interesting stories to tell. Some are from other countries and have learned in other languages, so my computer science classes are sometimes their first for English as well as computer programming and cybersecurity.
My students are hard workers and it is important that they have the resources they need, so they only have to focus on the hard parts of learning.
We delight to see such growth over the time they are with us, and it is important to give back to them in return.
My Project
Students in this Honor's engineering class will be analyzing electronic circuits and calculating the resistance, voltage and current of circuits before we build and test them. We are analyzing circuits using Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's Voltage Law, and Kirchoff's Current Law.
Our students are going to need a handheld calculator with the ability to go into engineering mode- showing values that can be converted to SI units.
The Sharp D.A.L. calculators are an excellent tool and easy to use for electronics students!
Students will use the class set of calculators in various pursuits during this course, and will likely gain a new skill that can be transferred into many similar STEM disciplines.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
