Demonstrating Boolean Logic Using Simple Electrical Circuits
McElhaney, Kevin W.
Mathematics Teacher, v97 n2 p126 Feb 2004
While exploring the subject of geometric proofs, boolean logic operators AND and OR can be used to allow students to visualize their true-or-false patterns. An activity in the form of constructing electrical circuits is illustrated to explain the concept.
