Description

The Premium Kit includes everything in the Standard Kit (item 072042), plus 29 additional parts to complete the advanced, premium projects. These projects include an IR Security Alarm System, Temperature Sensor, and Joule Thief (Drawing energy from a dead cell). The Standard Kit will open vertically into a personalized workstation, keeping all components easily identifiable and accessible. In your kit you will find a portable breadboard carry case which allows you to take your creations on the go; all required hardware and electronic components, which are quality, industrial grade parts; step-by-step instructions and a flash-drive with 9 hours of learning videos, and two reference books. The interactive videos give students the ability to learn at their own pace and provide lectures, demonstrations, schematics, and assembly of the projects. With just the right mix of theory, practical helps, and graphics, students will be inspired to want to learn. The guidebooks provide more opportunity for in-depth learning and analysis through helpful pictures and illustrations, detailed explanations of components and circuits, a wealth of interesting facts, and “Q-boxes" which answer a variety of related questions.)
