Synopsis

STEM learning is essential in our technology-driven world. Even our youngest children are innately curious and capable of understanding more than we often realize. As a parent of two, we've seen firsthand the wonder in their eyes when exploring new concepts and am always amazed how much they understand.

This book series aims to introduce practical engineering concepts to ignite a love for learning in young children. We don't overly simplify; instead, we present real-world explanations. In this electronics edition, we bring to life various electronic components as fun characters, explaining their roles and how they work together in an engaging way.

Children (and even adults) of all ages will enjoy this adventure into the world of engineering! We know you will be as amazed as we are how quickly even young kids understand the concepts that we are careful not to oversimplify!

Have Fun!

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Dr. Mike Roberts earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Arizona in 2012, but he began his engineering journey long before that. He didn't come from a family of engineers, but was always drawn to the field. From an early age, he found joy in dismantling household objects to understand their inner workings, and over time, he mastered the art of repairing and reassembling them. In his teenage years, Mike began experimenting with electronics, which further fueled his passion for engineering. He pursued his undergraduate studies at NYU-Poly, earning his Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, with a specialization in Mechatronics (a field that synergizes mechanical engineering, electronics, computer science, and robotics). He also completed a minor specialization in electronics. During his final years at NYU-Poly, Mike developed a fascination for fluid dynamics. Mike had the privilege of spending a summer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory which fueled his engineering ambition and he realized his academic journey should continue. This pursuit led him to a research assistant position at the University of Arizona, where he conducted both experimental and computational studies on fluid mechanics, specifically focusing on fluid instabilities and turbulent mixing. As an experimentalist, Mike honed his skills not only from a theoretical perspective, but also through hands-on practical experience. His work encompassed an array of tasks, from soldering electrical circuits and designing then machining parts to writing computer programs for analyzing high-speed camera images of his experiments. Regardless of the task at hand, Mike derived immense joy and pride from his work. Upon completing his PhD, Mike moved to Oregon, where he now thrives in the tech industry at Intel. Here, he also started a family with his wonderful wife. As a father to two young boys, he relishes the opportunity to share his love for engineering, inspiring a new generation to explore the captivating world of STEM.
