Bluetooth
Cristie Reed
- Reading
- Read the explanatory sections together, pausing to connect the ideas to devices you know. Then look at the design task and decide what materials or help it would require.
- Themes
- Bluetooth and everyday communication: The book explains that Bluetooth devices use radio waves to connect and considers how the technology is used in daily life. The stated approach is informational: it explains the technology and its uses rather than presenting a value judgement about them.
- Designing a communication device: Students are invited to use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve a communication problem. The activity is presented as a practical application of communication ideas; its precise expectations are not described.
- Worth knowing
- The practical task involves designing and building with tools and materials; check what it asks the reader to use and whether you can support that activity.
