Introduction
The project Electron arose from the initiative of the University of Brasiliab (UnB).
At the beginning of year 2012, the UnB Student Branch, received from the Electronic
Devices Society (EDS), educational kits of basic electronics (snap circuits - SR 750)
and, given the reality of the educational system in Brazil, the Student Branch decide to
use the kits t be instruments for dynamic classes of electronics on public schools. On Brazil, the public educational system has a lot to develop. The lack of
investments on education on Brazil and makes exacts sciences unattractive and,
because of this, the number of high school students that what to study engineering is
low as well the number of engineering student who complete the course and it is
already becoming a problem for the labor market in Brazil.
The proposal Unb Student Branch’s proposal was to use the kits received to
develop a project that takes up engineering out of university with a focus on public
school students so that they could see all the engineering and related sciences in a
manner distinct from that usually they are passed and thus can see, in engineering, a
feasible way of achieving professional and personal.
To achieve this purpose, the Branch developed classes of electronics to two
institutions in Brasilia: College Pompilio Marques de Souza, and in the college Centro
Educacional da Asa Norte (CEAN)
The project Electron has gone the event in Brasília called Feira Capital
Estudante which is one event that shows the possible college courses to high school
student showing electronics to students of the whole Brasilia. The project Electron has
gone, too, to the week of science and technology ( Semana de ciência e tecnologia)
where more students, of all ages, could enjoy eletronics.
Because of all this, the project Electron has won the prize of case of success on
the national meeting of IEEE’s student branches.
"Nobody is born ready,
It is by experiencing
ourselves in the world
That we do it. "

Evaluation Form
To approve the project ELECTRON, students will be evaluated seconds the following
parameters:
1. Attendance in the classroom
2. Homework
3. Project (Group work)
4. Behavior
The proportion of each of these parameters is at the discretion of the volunteer teachers,
however should be given greater proportion of the final grade for the parameters Homework
and Attendance in classroom, since these parameters reveal directly the level of commitment
and effort of the student with the project Electron.
Attendance in the classroom is also a parameter for automatic failure. If the student,
without plausible justification, miss more than 25% (4 classes) he will get automatic failure.

Class Period:
The class period is the period of teaching the basics of electronics. The contents herein
discriminated for each class are only guides for teachers and they can be freely modified by the
teacher, if necessary, though classes may never be superficial or flee the focus on electronics.
The contents that are to be covered on scientific concepts of electrical and electronics
must necessarily have an experiment that demonstrates in practice.
To better immersion of students in content, it is recommended that teachers tell the story
involved in all past content, so that they realize that everything developed by science was
developed by people like them.
