This project introduces an interactive circuit puzzle for teaching Primary students about series and parallel circuit connections through hands-on learning. The microcontroller ESP-WROOM-32 is an important core in this project; it's responsible for providing seamless user interaction and accurate feedback. It will receive the student's configuration of the number of the bulbs after the start button is pressed, read the bulb's voltage from the user circuit connection through the ADC pin, and send feedback through an LCD, LEDs, and a buzzer in order to show the result. A correct circuit connection lights a green LED and turns a buzzer on; while incorrect wiring activates a red LED and shows an error message. This model would provide hands-on learning, where a student can experiment and visualize circuit behavior in real time. The model is also useful in teaching; the teacher will easily be able to check if the students understand the subject matter without checking each connection made since all the results will be sent to an application for him to check. It helps the system in making the learning process more interesting and hence increases the interest of students in electrical circuits, enhancing their understanding of basic scientific concepts. More importantly, this project will show how a microcontroller will find its application in an educational tool. It would hint at how technology could make complex teaching processes simpler and improve classroom experiences.
