Technology Dissection

What happens when you combine "technology" and "dissection?" At the McWane Science Center in Birmingham, AL, kids find out, by taking apart electronic gadgets to learn how they work. Kids can then put them back together, or make new things with the parts. Check out what happens when they dissect cameras!

SAFETY TIP: If you try this project, have an adult help you discharge the flash circuit when you open the camera, or you could get an electrical shock. It won't hurt you, but it might surprise you!
