DON'T BE LATE!

In this fun STEM3Dkits LCD Alarm Clock project students will design, print and then build their very own color changing LCD alarm clock!  Not only does it tell the time, but also the date and temperature.  Now there's no excuse for them to be late for school!

The course content guides students through the design process, from researching existing concepts, conceptualizing and developing their own ideas to then 3D printing their design. It also instructs them step by step on how to assemble their LCD alarm clock.  In conjunction with the course material, the complete LCD Alarm Clock kit from STEM3Dkits includes:
​
  • Complete clock electronics kit (AA batteries not included).
  • Base STL file (CAD model) link which students use as a starting point for their design.
  • Online access to student course content
  • Online access to teacher guide content

​In this project students will learn about the design process as they design their customized alarm clock.  You may also teach further on time, temperature, LCD's, LED’s and electronics!
