RESOURCES (PDFs)
RESOURCE DESIGNED BY CRAIG JEFFERIES
Level 1 Electronics Technology Workbook:
An excellent resource made for Level 1, High School NCEA credits, but suitable for intermediate students with teacher guidance.
It covers the central concepts of Electricity, Electronics and Picaxe Programming.
It includes basic Picaxe Electronic Circuits and the relevant Picaxe Basic Code. A great place to start the learning journey
and a simple reference document also.
