	Treatment		The video opens welcoming freshmen students while showing a picture of a lab station. The students will see a breadboard over the bench table and a close-up will show details. At the same time a narrator will tell that a protoboard is used to assemble and test electrical circuits. After the presentation of the concept, a graphic of a breadboard will appear where students will appreciate a closer look. An animated graphic overlay (top view) indicates the rectangular plastic block, the rows of holes and how wires are connected. While telling that underneath the board (bottom view graphic) there are metallic strips that are not visible, another animated graphic overlay indicates their arrangement. Another picture will show a metallic strip with five pairs of fingers or clips while the narrator tells that it is the heart of the board. Also he or she will tell that it is made of nickel silver. An animated graphic overlay indicates the pair of fingers. The narrator tells that this strip is known as a socket strip because of its size. Also will tell the difference with a bus strip. The graphic showing the bottom view of the board will appear again to point out the difference in strip sizes. Also an animated graphic overlay will show their location on the top view. While having the top view graphic, the video will show examples of good use. An animated graphic overlay will be showing the right wires and components leads. The narrator will finish by telling the students that breadboarding takes time, practice and experience. The video will finish with an overlay graphic over the breadboard top view showing an example of a two resistors circuit.
