Today's students are going to enter a world dominated by computers, making it of great importance that they are exposed to electronics. For less than $100 per student in a class of 25 students can have an Arduino Uno board, LEDs, buzzers, LCD screens, a motion sensor, and soldering supplies to introduce them to a number of simple computer concepts. Or for under $100 the students could be supplied with a more focused kit that will play MP3s.

The budgets of these gateway kits for the possible computer scientists of the future can be seen here:
