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
Emily_S@MLE_online that would be a blooming awesome. Maybe have a mini project each week to teach about some material or components. So they cover more things and maybe learn about something tha helps them later.
