Summary

This project was created with the intention of children to learn through an interactive and fun way. I finished this project under 4 weeks and managed to create an electric circuit applied to learning about organs. The project was decorated and tested several times to check that it worked. Later on this project was to be shown to children in primary.

Step by step

1-Decorating the board

Firstly I designed the board by sticking a pink card on top, then i printed off the different organs.Then i used a barbiqui to make holes next to the names of the organs to put pins in.

2-The battery

Secondly, I stuck the battery to the other side, by keeping it in its case it made it easier.I stuck it with selotape because glue could melt the battery.

3-The wires

Thirdly, I separated a two wired cable into 2.Then i numbered each organ with its name on the back.I took the rubber off each end and wrapped them around the end of the metal pins..

4-Finalizing the project

Lastly, I emplaced a light bulb and attached a wire from the lightbulb to a pen and another from the battery to a stud inside a pen.Then i ran some test runs and corrected any mistakes

EBI-Even better ifReflection

After the test runs and having shown my project to the children, i noticed some mistakes that i could correct to improve my project. 1-My wires would sometimes detach from the lightbulb and battery so to avoid this i could use selotape to stick them together. 2-Also,I could draw more drawings on the project with bright coulours as I have seen that the image of the project is essential when peaking the childrens interest.

In my project, what went well and proved to be successful was the aesthetic of the project.Even though there is always room for improvement, the vivid colours i used in my presentation proved to be effective when it came to the chilren`s interest.

Secondly, simply having the names of the organs clearly written and in black, along with the organisation of the project made it much more easier for the children to understand how to use the project.This resulted in many children being able to try to use the project because they understood how to play thanks to the simplicity of the project.
