Learning Basic Electronics Using TinkerCAD

This ETEC 511 project is an exploration of basic electronics breadboarding and concepts with TinkerCAD - Circuits as the exploration medium.

TinkerCAD is platform for 3D design that also features a Circuits simulator, both of which are aimed at teaching the basics of these engineering fields.

That Circuits simulator has some well documented lessons for working with microcontrollers such as Arduino and Micro:bit.

Less well documented and developed is the simulation of non-microcontroller circuits, which TinkerCAD circuits does exceptionally well.

Many of the tools listed here come from the crowd-sourced community of Makers that frequently use tools like this. Many resources come from teacher blogs, youtube videos or on the Tinkercad itself. For places that those tools did not exist in an easy to access way fro rookie ADST teachers, they ahve been created.
