 
This activity from the Florida Advanced Technological Education (FLATE) Center asks students to "engineer and manufacture a light-emitting diode (LED) using a simple circuit." The class reviews electrical circuit concepts before studying circuit diagrams and then building a circuit in groups. Finally, groups compare their experiences and results and report on their findings, including recommendations and what they learned. The activity is designed for middle school, or grades 6 through 8, and requires an understanding of "basic concepts of electrons, atoms, current, measurement and units." The page includes a lesson plan, lecture slides, a student worksheet, a grading rubric, and reference...

AMSER is a portal of educational resources and services built specifically for use by those in Community and Technical Colleges but free for anyone to use.
AMSER is funded by the National Science Foundation as part of the National Science Digital Library, and is being created by a team of project partners led by Internet Scout.   
Make sure to check out AMSER's AMSER Science Reader Monthly. The AMSER SRM provides readers with a useful online collection of information about a particular topic related to applied math and science by combining freely available articles from popular journals with curriculum, learning objects, and web sites from the AMSER portal. The AMSER Science Reader Monthly is free to use in the classroom and is available here and can also be found under the About tab on the AMSER homepage.
