Abstract :
Sangatronics is a nationwide programme to provide practical electronics instruction for students taking advanced level physics, comprising five-day courses at a youth camp, where an intensive combination of theory, experiment and recreation has proved effective for over 2000 students. The locally-produced electronics kits and course notes are described in the paper, together with an evaluation of the project
