Following last year’s Centre for Power Electronics Annual Conference, the organising team dedicated some funds to the procurement of Hot Wires – Plug and Play Electronics Sets (John Adams) for distribution to primary schools (suitable for Ages 8+). The sets are being supplied with rechargeable batteries and a solar powered charger to also encourage the use and awareness of alternative energy supplies.
Following a previous call for applications, five of these sets were awarded to successful applicants.
There is still an opportunity to apply for a set – if you are involved in STEM activities in primary schools and are interested in applying, please email the IMAPS-UK Office (office@imaps.org.uk) as soon as possible, with details of the intended recipients and a short description of how you plan to actively promote electronics awareness within the primary school(s) involved.
