Soft Circuits: Crafting e-Fashion with DIY Electronics

This well-illustrated, rich resource introduces teachers to electronics and circuitry in tandem with textiles, and will inspire educators to experiment and tinker with e-textiles. Its design challenges—from simple to complex— will build students’ knowledge of soft circuitry so they can create a variety of e-textile projects. Students will come away with a solid understanding of circuitry, LEDs, and solar panels in e-textiles. The resource offers a variety of handouts and assessment tools for students, which teachers can adapt for to meet their students’ needs.
