@futurebird When I was teaching, I had a student with an independent study lay out a circuit to flash an LED with a 555 timer and we had a company manufacture 30 PCBs based on his work. I then taught 7th graders how to assemble them. My prideful moment was when two girls in the class were fighting about whose turn it was to solder (I only had 2 irons). Those are exactly the kind of disagreements that you really want to have.
Also, because of the fact that we only had 2 irons, I had the class problem solve how we were going to make 30 circuit boards with wires when we only had two soldering irons. They decided on two parallel assembly lines with no cues from me.
