About this title

Synopsis

Electronic gadgets are fun to play with, but they’re even more fun to build! Students will unlock the mysteries of electronics, sensors, and LEDs with this book as it provides both technical information and step-by-step projects. Clubs, online communities, and additional resources are also discussed to help ambitious makers progress to the next level in their newfound hobby.

Reviews

Gr 5-8-These slim volumes are designed to attract children to the maker movement, which has rapidly grown as an online community among adult and teenage builders of technology devices. Each book offers a few projects, some made with readily available materials and tools. Many require free downloading of online patterns or instruction, the purchase of components or kits, or the use of costly equipment. There's an emphasis on joining or forming science clubs to share in the making process. Libraries and schools already offering makerspace programs may find useful ideas, books, and websites here. Savvy tech users could likely find all this and much more online, but the books offer basic explanations and definitions along with intriguing ideas for projects. Some of the titles are disjointed, and there's also repetitive material. Intimidating supply lists and the many safety issues are addressed with an emphasis on adult assistance and the value of collaborating with other DIY makers. Despite a few flaws, the subject matter makes these series relevant and solid additions to most collections.α(c) Copyright 2014. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
