What an electrifying journey it has been at our EMMS Academy! Over the past weeks, our students have immersed themselves in the dynamic world of electrical engineering, culminating in a rich learning experience filled with innovation and hands-on activities.
Our adventure began with a deep dive into breadboarding. The students eagerly learned about breadboard components, circuiting components, and the intricacies of parallel and series circuits. This knowledge was immediately put into practice with a breadboarding challenge, where they designed Arduino circuits to light up LEDs, sparking their creativity and engineering skills.
Mid-academy, the focus shifted to the fascinating realms of semiconductors, microcontrollers, and integrated circuits. Here, students explored their real-world applications and further experimented with Arduino circuits, incorporating complex components like switches and transistors. This session not only enhanced their practical skills but also deepened their theoretical understanding.
The academy then delved into superconductors and electromagnets. This knowledge was pivotal in understanding the mechanics of electric motors. In an exhilarating finale, students channeled their learning to build high-speed, motor-powered cars, showcasing their ingenuity and engineering prowess.
But the learning didn't stop there. Students also mastered the principles of Ohm’s Law, solving intricate problems and designing fan-powered cars using limited resources like straws, tape, and popsicle sticks. This exercise in resourcefulness culminated in a thrilling race, where creativity and team collaboration were key to victory.
As we wrap up this fantastic journey, we reflect on the incredible progress and enthusiasm shown by our students. They have not only learned the fundamentals of electrical engineering but have also applied these concepts in creative and innovative ways. What an inspiring journey it has been, and we can't wait to see where their newfound skills and knowledge will take them next!
