The Science of Speakers
by David Wirth
Many students enjoy listening to music, making it the perfect hook for an engaging STEM lab. In this activity, students build their own working speaker to play music, combining creativity with hands-on learning. With simple, low-cost materials, this project connects key STEM concepts such as electricity, magnetism, sound, and engineering in a fun and memorable way.
