STEM and STEAM
Witblox ( from the Witblox page)
TechShiksha is an IIT Bombay Alumni Organization working with young children to create an atmosphere for creative learning, innovation and promoting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education practically.
Our mission is to provide a maker's platform to young children where they can explore, innovate, create and build things and thereby achieve Quality education.
In order to promote Electronics/Robotics education, we have designed Witblox. Witblox is lego like electronic building blocks with specific functions. They can be connected to one another to build different circuits, logic and applications. Witblox is used by children to make different Robots, Electronic circuits and applications, projects and innovation
We believe that Witblox has the potential to boost Maker Revolution around the world. It can be used by every student, artists, Innovators to build projects, prototypes and Innovations without worrying about the fact that they do not know electronics or soldering.
Crumble Controller
The Crumble is a cheap, easy-to-use electronics controller. A few ‘croc’ leads and a USB cable are all you need to connect motors, LEDs and sensors and begin experimenting. No programming experience is required as the FREE software is a graphical, drag-and-drop system inspired by MIT Scratch.
Learn how to program such things as
-motors
- LEDs
-servos
- old e-waste parts
- lasers (advanced users only)
- make basic alarm systems for your house
There is so many things that your imagination and a bit of learning can do. you never know where it can lead you.
Our STEaM program with the Witblox robotics system and the Crumble controller is going really well.
Below is an downloadable example training sheet we are working on. Just print and fold in 4 .
