“A basic circuit set, compatible with the Raspberry Pi computer. The set includes a "Breadboard", three coloured LEDs, a buzzer, a button and four resistors with a selection of jumper cables to connect them together and to the Raspberry Pi computer.
I bought this set, for my nephew, who is 7 years old. He likes it but did require help.
Instructions for this kit can be found online. I have included a picture which also has some items from another CamJam EduKit (#2) like bigger LEDs and an electric thermometer.
They're great for teaching the basics with hands on work.”
“Good starter kit for young learners with a Raspberry Pi who want to get into learning computer hardware/software and the Pi GPIO. Comes with links to online support resource.”
“Bought this so me and my son could do something together on our new Raspberry Pi 3 b plus, It is just the right level for starting off with basic electronics and python coding, we both look forward to the weekend when we get the Pi out and follow the worksheets to create something rewarding, Great bit of kit and instructions thanks.”
“I have ended up teaching robotics, I had no exteriance in robotics before doing these kits, I have done more since, but buy these every year for year 5 and up.”
“I bought the EduKit to help me up the learning curve of working with GPIO on the Pi. It was quite interesting and helpful, but I was left with two significant unanswered questions at the end: 1. why were there no shebang directives in the sample scripts so that I could easily run them from the command line?; and 2. when do you need real pull-up/pull-down resistors, and when are the built-in pull-up/pull-down capabilities of the Pi sufficient?”
