Description

Introducing students to the solderless breadboard can be a challenge—but it doesn’t have to slow down your course.

Join author and Professor Pat Hoppe for a 30-minute demonstration of a new virtual lab designed to help students quickly understand what a solderless breadboard is, how it works, and how to use it to build circuits. See how the interactive lab provides students with a visual, hands-on way to develop foundational breadboarding skills before they tackle more complex circuit-building activities. Early reviewers have praised the lab’s potential to save valuable instructional time and help bring students up to speed faster.

In this webinar, Professor Hoppe will demonstrate the lab and share how it can support a more effective introduction to solderless breadboard circuit building. Time will be given for your feedback and questions.
