Emily VelascoI want to teach a class on repurposing electronics. We could start out just taking some broken things apart and seeing if we can fix them, but every student would have to pick something to repurpose or revive as a semester-long project. Maybe they want to turn an old propane lantern into an LED lantern, convert a cordless drill with dead nicad batteries to lithium, or jailbreak an e-bike. Everyone should leave the class with a device or appliance with a new lease on life. A community college should hire me for this
kimu@MLE_online @afewbugs one idea: proposing it as a class at a local makerspace or public library. In my experience, CCs have fairly tight curriculum requirements & also budget challenges, so starting off in an environment with more open requirements might get it off the ground faster. It’s an amazing idea! 100% would love to take a class like this!
