The story of Circuitville

Team members:
Aakanksha Aggarwal, Elizabeth Ho, Joyce Zheng

We wanted to explain the differences between a series and parallel circuit (in terms of the Current flow, Voltage distribution, and resistance) in a fun, and engaging way. We thought that making a narrative, and introducing characters would be an effective way to introduce the differences to complete beginners.

One of the major takeaways for us was that we learned so much about this concept while trying to making a teaching aid. Also, it compelled us to think about the core ideas, the logic behind the working of circuits instead of the numerical or symbolic representations.
