IMAGE COPYRIGHT Power On! The Circuit Blocks Exploration
Join researchers from the Sustainable Electronic Technologies (SET) group in the School of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) for an exciting, hands-on journey into the world of electronic circuits. This interactive activity reveals how circuits work and how they power everyday technologies-from smartphones and computers to household lighting. Participants will explore the essential building blocks of electronics, including wires, switches, and resistors, and learn how these components connect together to create working circuits.
Visitors will have the chance to build their own circuits that light up an LED or power a small fan, gaining first-hand insight into how electricity flows and how current and voltage work together. Designed to be fun, creative, and collaborative, the activity encourages problem-solving and teamwork among friends and families. Whether you are a curious beginner or a future engineer, this engaging experience offers a playful introduction to electronics that sparks curiosity, creativity, and a deeper appreciation of the technology powering our modern world.
