Raspberry Pi’s GPIO (General-Purpose I/O) pins, we can make LEDs blink or adjust their brightness through programming.
Right now, we’re creating a program that adjusts the brightness in sync with the movements of a cat circling in a loop.
It’s also possible to apply
this mechanism to create games or program motor movements. This approach seems to offer plenty of potential for expanding into various types of lessons!

Introduction to Measurement and Control, Part 2. Using
everyday materials like cardboard and aluminum tape, we built a switch that toggles between "on" and "off." Building on
this, students can create game controllers, musical instruments, and more—using not only cardboard but also a variety of other materials. Depending on their
ideas, this activity can be expanded to fit a wide range of lessons.
