Do you have a child that is full of
wacky inventions and ideas? Or perhaps simply keen to understand how things
work?
Help your
child get a good grounding with 'The Electronic Wizards Apprenticeship'.
The Electronic
Wizard's Apprenticeship is a fantastic inspirational one year Postal Course,
split into three 'spells' (terms) of four months each. There is a Certificate for each student that completes the full 12 months Course.
Join the adventure..... into the magical world of electronics.
The Course is
very practical and hands on.
Every month you get a mystery 'Wonder Box' in the post (four
per spell).
Each package contains everything to make two
or three fantastic electronics projects.
This includes components such as solar cells, batteries, meter, speaker,
chips, circuit boards, wire and solder,Motors. Transistors and much more..... There are over 125 different parts! many are repeated making over 220 items, and 135 pages of fun instructions.
The
instructions are fun and chatty with illustrations and no jargon. There's also a regular quiz and sometimes a CD or DVD:
everything for your exciting journey.
These are not simple click together kits that teach you nothing. This is active learning!
For example find out
what a transistor is, what it does and how you can use it in a circuit. Begin
to understand what all the parts of a circuit are and make your own!
What else? Make a radio transmitter, oscillators, LED flashers and sound generators. You'll be doing simple computer programming, learning how to solder, using magnets, motors and power switching. You'll get to grips with the graphs, charting, technical drawing and calculations you need. Learn about early inventions, alternative energies. Understand just what volts, amps, watts, resistors and capacitors are all about.
No previous experience is needed.
Students of 10 or
older can easily follow the course.
Younger students are also welcome.
However they will need more practical help. This will mean that parents
will have to take more of an active role and will have to go through the course
helping all of the time. Without that extra parent help the younger Apprentice
may fall behind and lose interest, so double effort from parents please for under 10's... :o)
Please
apply
at least 10 days before the Spell Date.......Preferably book as early
as
possible!...... It takes a lot to organise your WonderBoxes!....... but
if you are late booking in...... get in contact as we often have extra
WonderBoxes ready made up.
All Parts and Components are supplied , including batteries. Superb Value for your Money!!
A 15/30 watt
soldering iron is essential. (Adult supervision will sometimes be required) If
you need one, this can be purchased from us including some solder for £12
including post. Solder is suplied with all projects aswell.
