Transparency Training Courses
Transparency sets offer the perfect combination for the
instructor who wishes to begin an electronics instruction program or supplement an existing
course. The transparencies can be used to supplement classroom lectures and are an
extremely useful tool for teaching electronics. Even if you have limited experience with
electronics, you'll find these products make the task of teaching electronics simple and
easy to understand.
Deluxe Exploration Labs
Chaney Exploration Labs use reusable solder-less breadboards that
give students hands on experience with electronic parts. Through the completion of hands on
lab exercises, students can see tangible results of applied theories. Each Deluxe
Exploration Lab comes complete with all necessary electronic components and a detailed
manual that guides the student through a series of experiments. Each manual is fully
illustrated with easy-to-follow pictorial diagrams and schematics and every experiment has
been designed to teach the student specific concepts of electronics. The labs are suitable
for use in elementary grades up through college, and each lab is designed to be used
repeatedly by different students.
After completing the deluxe exploration labs, most instructors introduce their students to
soldering with our Learn to Solder Kits.
Learn to Solder Kits
Introduce the basic concepts behind proper soldering technique,
component identification, and circuit operation. Students with no prior soldering
experience will learn how to solder using real electronic components and can even build a
functional electronic circuit to show for their efforts. For beginning students, we
recommend to use first the C6774 Soldering Activity Kit, and then either the C6445 Learn to
Solder Kit or the C6491 Deluxe Learn to Solder Kit. For more advanced students who are
interested in learning about Surface Mount Technology, we recommend our C6758 Universal
Learn to Solder Kit that uses both SMD and standard components, or our C6719 Deluxe SMD
Learn to Solder Kit.
When you have provided your students with training in soldering, you will want to give them
the opportunity to build functional educational electronic project kits.
Educational Electronic Project Kits
Once your students know how to solder, they can start building fun and practical electronic project kits. We have a broad line of kits that is sure to offer something for a variety of students and classroom needs. An excellent choice are our ROBOT KITS. These robots are both challenging and fun to build and will motivate your students to learn more
about the exciting world of electronics.
Because students have interests in various areas of electronics, we recommend they select
among any of our 191 various Educational Electronic Project Kits.
