Session Name

Tinker Day: Complete an electronic project in a night

Abstract

Build 1) Hand-crank emergency light generator 2) Motion sensing fairy light

Student Organisation organising this session Energy Club

Session intent (what to expect)

Participants will first gain confidence in doing electronics project by assembling components according to schematics, then proceed to learn about soldering.

It will be a very self-directed learning, where the schematics is shown on the screen and the participants will assemble the project by themselves. Facilitators will be present to look out for safety and answer the participants

We offer 2 level of difficulties will be offered - Basic for people who have no confidence in electronics and Advanced for people who wish to challenge themselves to soldering.

Level 1: Basic assembly of the components using quick release terminal block Level 2: Soldering of the components onto prefboard

No prerequisite or prior knowledge is required

Session details

Max 18 participants per session Venue: Cohort classroom 14 Timing: 7pm to 10pm Involves soldering

Require booking of venue on the 27th May and 3rd June Soldering may be required

Speakers/Workshop facilitators

3 facilitators from Energy club

Logistical details

Logistics will be provided by Energy Club, using leftover materials from previous tinker day workshops.

For first workshop: 1 handcrank generator Sample 18 handcrank generator 40 quick release terminal block 10 prefboard 18 1F, 2.5V capacitor 18 DIP switches 18 diodes 18 LED AAA batteries Wire (red and black) Accessories: Soldering kits Wire cutter

For second workshop: 18 fairylights 50 quick release terminal block 18 PIR sensor 18 2N2222 transistor

Accessories Soldering kit with heat shrinka wirecutter

@Fishbiscuit to advise on venue

Fishbiscuit commented 5 years ago

@baijialong I think you should hold it at fab lab, would that be possible? soldering in a CC will make it hard for us to book it

baijialong commented 5 years ago

In that case, if they forbid soldering in cohort classroom, then we will remove the soldering component of the workshop.

In previous experience (feb 2019), EHS requires us to have a protective cover over the table when conducting workshop involving soldering. Not sure if they have updated their policy again.

We would prefer the workshop to be held in the classroom.
