STEAM课程在K-12学校中广泛实施，作为促进计算思维技能的努力的一部分。这一点，再加上电子元件和套件的可及性增加，为新手从事物理计算项目打开了大门。这些项目挑战学生学习和应用电气概念以及编程技能。万用表是测量电路最常用的工具，它对新手使用设置了很高的门槛。本文介绍了一个正在进行的工作，朝着发展的低地板地板。该工具旨在供没有电气知识的高中生使用，作为其电子纺织课程的一部分。通过为学生提供形成对电压和电流的概念性理解的机会，我们希望以一种有意义的方式为他们的探索和调试过程提供支架。
STEAM curriculums are widely implemented in K-12 schools, as part of the effort to promote computational thinking skills. This, together with increased accessibility of electronic components and kits, has opened the door for novices to engage in physical computing projects. Debugging these projects challenges students to learn and apply electrical concepts together with programming skills. Multimeter, the most common tool for measuring electric circuits, is placing a very high bar for novices to use. This paper presents a work in progress toward the development of a low-floor multimeter. The tool is designed to be used by high-school students with no prior electricity knowledge as part of their e-textile curricula. By providing students the opportunity to form a conceptual understanding of voltage and current flow, we hope to scaffold their exploration and debugging process in a meaningful way.
