Paper circuit kits, like Chibitronics, , can broaden participation in technology creation.

Introductory electrical theory activities include polarity, current flow, and connection grounding. These activities can be scaffolded into developing more complex mental models, like the design and production of printed circuit boards (PCBs), including floorplanning, placement of electronic components and routing.

Designing with material syntonicity in mind respects the sensations apprentices experience performing computational operations.

“Passing through” is a helpful metaphor to visualize an electrical circuit.

Novices often can’t internalize looking at circuit components and wires on a breadboard, so to match that body synonicity with a circuit schematic printout.

Circuit stickers can provide a practical alternative to traditional breadboarding and custom PCBs.

The shapes of the stickers can be designed to be graphical representations of the function of the electronic elements so that users could “read” how to connect the sticker, and translate the physical sticker to an electrical component on a schematic.

Attaching the paper circuit to a microprocessor opens opportunities for coding.
