Lightup Card ZONE: Software Zone AGE GROUP: 7-10 DESCRIPTION: Students will learn how to create an electric circuit without cables but using conductive tape and sticker LEDs. They will also create a gift card, integrate the sticker LED with it, and customize it with colors. ENGINEERING DESIGN CHALLENGE: Every year, a huge celebration happens on the National Day of Qatar. Where people go out to express their love for this country and enjoy all the activities happening on that day. The students of QA wanted to make something special for that day to express their love and loyalty. They want to make a card that has an icon that represent the culture of Qatar, but they wanted to make it special. Therefore, they need your help in integrating electricity in their card, but without using cables! You will help them accomplish their goal using basic electronics like conductive tape, sticker LEDs, and coin battery. LEARNING OBJECTIVES: After attending this session, participants will be able to: Construct a functional electric circuit. Learn how to construct an electric circuit using conductive tape and LED sticks and battery coin. Learn the difference between open and closed circuit. EQUIPMENT: Cardboard crad Coin battery Copper tape Sticker LEDs Colors Glitter Velcro Paper
LESSON PLAN (Pg 1) Time / Duration Activity Materials Computer, internet access, Data show, Projector. 10 min Introduce yourself. Introduce students to the makerspace. What is a makerspace? What can be done in a makerspace? Introduce students to the Makerspace safety guidelines. Computer, internet access, , Data show, Projector. 5 min Give students tour in the makerspace to discover each zone. Computer, internet access, , Data show, Projector. 10 min Design Challenge, give the kids voice and choice in directing their own learning: give students go through the letter and identify the challenge. [5 mns] discuss with students the challenge, design specifications and the best technology to solve the challenge. [5 mins] Computer, internet access, , Data show, Projector. 10 min Using the engineering design challenge, let the students identify the need to know by analyzing constraints. - How to construct an electric circuit. - How to use conductive tape to build an electric circuit. - What is the difference between open and closed circuit.
LESSON PLAN (Pg 2) Time / Duration Activity Materials 5 min Students brainstorm and plan their solution: give students time to plan their solutions. 10 min Introduce students to the meaning of the card. Ask them to write one word to this country, expressing their feelings. Discuss different ways of celebrating the national day. Paper. 20 min Introduce students to Electric circuits. Explain how electric circuits work. Explain the difference between open and closed circuits. Explain how to construct an electric circuit using conductive tape and sticker LEDs. Show the components of an electric circuit. Conductive tape. Coin battery. Sticker LEDs.
LESSON PLAN (Pg 3) Time / Duration Activity Materials 40 min Let students start working independently to build their Lightup card. Conductive tape. Coin battery. Sticker LEDs. Colors. Glitter. Velcro. Guide the students to the write side where they have to place the circuit. Students will use 2 copper tapes, 2 sticker LEDs, and 1 coin battery to build the electric circuit. Show step by step how to construct the electric circuit. Students will test the electric circuit. Students will use colors to decorate their cards. Students will Velcro to create a lock for the card. Final prototype. 5 min Participants will present their solutions to class. 10 min Students rotate around the groups to try each others prototypes. 5 min Reflect and discuss with the students the knowledge gained through the session.
