My Projects
New Scientists PH1- Primary school teaching kit that allows children to learn how to make a Turbine from E-Waste. The 4 files included were developed for use by both children ( 5 years - 12 years ) and also their teachers. The goal of the project is to allow for PHYSICS - ( The Physical World ) to be taught in an interesting and interactive way through physical models that flash and spin. The kit was also designed to use material resources that can hopefully be sourced for free.
