Circuit Simulation using Tinkercad
Mmmm… Circuit Stimulation?, Any idea what the words suggest? Let’s try to understand!
Many appliances (devices) in our homes use electricity to work. Without it, our lives would be darker, duller and colder. Small electrical appliances often use batteries which store electricity. These appliances can be moved from place to place.
Electricity travels through wire from the power source (such as a battery), around a series of components (the circuit) and back to the power source. This makes the bulb light!
Circuits are the powerful individual sections that make up an electronic device and enable its functioning. Circuit simulation helps us understand how the final device would operate at various stages of its design.

About This Course!
During our course, we’ll utilize Tinkercad (https://www.tinkercad.com/) to create, test, and refine designs, and make modifications as needed.
Tinkercad is an online platform for creating basic 3D shapes and developing digital prototypes of electronic components, including basic circuits, Arduino boards with LED lights, buzzers, and switches, as well as sensors and Micro-bit.
By the end of the course, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of electricity and electronic components through hands-on circuit-building.
This course is suitable for children aged 6 and above. We offer both offline and online modes.
To participate, students will require: A laptop, iPad, tablet, or PC (Windows or iOS) & A stable internet connection.
What you’ll learn!
01
Basic Module
Here, you will gain knowledge about the components & its uses. You’ll get hands-on experience on how various components are used in circuits to build real life solutions and build many great computing and robotics projects.
E.g. Traffic light system, PIR sensor, 7 segment display
02
Intermediate Module
In this module you will work with Microbit. Micro bit is a tiny circuit board designed to help kids learn to code and create with technology. It has many features including an LED display, buttons, and sensors. You can build creative projects that combine the magic of the digital and physical worlds.
E.g. Working with light sensor, magnet sensor in microbit
03
Advance Module
In this module we will explore further deeper into advanced electronic concepts, including analog and digital signal processing, advanced sensor integration, and wireless communication protocols. Work on complex projects that integrate multiple components and technologies.
E.g. Building a home automation system with Arduino,Creating a wearable device with Microbit.
04
In the end, students will be assessed based on a certification project that they will build on their own. This project will implement the electronic concepts learned in the course and bring them into action.
E.g. Building a radio with Microbit, Controlling a servo motor with Arduino.
