Saying "tech" isn't much information. What do they want to do?
If it's electronics, buy some starter kits, a good iron, and get them a book on electronics. (Maybe also show them some people like EEVBlog)
If it's computer science, but some computers, get them an internet connection and let them have at it.
Although I always say this: no one will learn unless they have a project they need to do. This is no matter the field. If you're not interested you're not going to learn in the first place.
- hatsunearu 10y ago+1 on eevblog. I started watching when I barely learned basic physics E&M and calculus, and now I'm confident that I can tackle all sorts of electronics all thanks to him. Though I was a highschooler back then and I had so much free time and watched 600+ videos in about 6 months, so not for everyone imo.
- gravypod 10y agoI'm in college so I'm using it to break from CS to EE. Far better then taking our schools EE classes since I can do it at my own pace and I learn things from someone who is currently practicing in the field (who seems to be quite good at it).
- hatsunearu 10y agoIn high school, I learned top down--projects first, math second. Now in school doing EE, I do bottom up--math first, projects second. I think having that top down experience in high school was tremendously helpful because I have experience in the entire full stack -- transistors to Javascript.
