In this investigation, students evaluate an electric circuit's effectiveness in transferring information.
The Using Codes to Communicate kit includes all the materials students will need to design and investigate.
Each kit contains enough materials for six groups of students.
Materials:
- Coin Batteries
- LED Lights
- Copper Tape
- Transparency Sheets
- Dry Erase Marker
- Roll of Paper
