1/28 Soldering & Schematics

1.  Tutorial:  How to add items to Electronic Circuits ePortfolio

2.  Introduction to soldering:

• What is soldering?
• Why is soldering useful?
• How do we solder safely?
• Head to the Makerspace for practice

3.  Introduction to schematics.  Take out your STEAM notebook for some brief notes.

4.  Use the rest of the time to continue working on Electronic Circuits ePortfolio

• Make a drawing (Google drawing or on paper) of a parallel and series circuit.  Add to ePortfolio
• Watch Mr. Robinett's lecture on Circuit Vocabulary and Circuit Math. Take notes in your STEAM notebook.  Pause the video when necessary to ensure you take good notes.
• Complete the Circuit Math tab on your ePortfolio

Answer the questions using Ohm's Law

• Add your answers to the website (you will be graded for correctness)
• Show the steps you took to make your calculations (just like the examples I showed you in the video)
• Download the PHET circuit simulator.  Instructions on how to download can be found at the top of the Circuit Math page on your ePortfolio.
