Junior IOT: Chips in School workshop demo
Abstract
This workshop ‘Chips in Leds’ is the starter workshop in the series ‘Chips in Schools’ by Junior IOT. Successive steps in this series are designed to awaken a strong interest into the specific beauty and attractiveness available in the broader chips industry. Each step is intended as an eye opener, aimed at a broad audience, including all ages and learning types. Activating for further learning by learner, teachers and institutes. The broad audience includes ages 6 up to 88.
With ‘Chips in leds’, participants playfully look at the innards of SMD leds. While they unknowingly make themselves aquainted with specific chip-scale structures and components, their task is to sort the items by type. They experience how the finer handling of both the microscopes and the tiny components helps them to achieve fun results, and they inspire and activate team members to try, experiment and enjoy.
Biography
In 2016, driven by my personal passion, I started the Junior IOT program for modern technology in education. Juniors learn the basic skills for modern technology, collaboration, daring to take control, and discovering ‘what do I want’.
To this end, we cultivate an inspiring approach—without barriers—built on many small steps toward success. We work from the “inside of the machine,” so that after our workshops, there is immediate recognition of the inner workings of the technology in the world around us. Juniors realize that the world around them is “malleable” and that these skills help them shape it.
We invite partners to collaborate from their own perspective. Within this scope, we are happy to take on the role of the implementing partner. The Junior IOT machines, materials, subject teachers, and curriculum are already in place. By complementing each other, we make a real impact.
In collaboration with clients and partners, we focus on our hands-on workshops and prefer to leave theory and theme/application to the school’s own education program. We see that our approach works very well for the students in this way.
Together, we can provide more technological inspiration to young people. This adds skills, gives them confidence, and makes them engaged.
And that’s what matters to us!
