Sarah Davies Senior Lecturer from the Nottingham Trent University (NTU) School of Education came to us with a great opportunity for teachers!

We recently attended the final presentation of the NTU Subject Knowledge Enhancement (SKE) students where they showed the results of their recent work on the theme 'being visible'. This week we'll take a closer look at one of the groups who came up with GloSport.

The BagLight is a moveable LED strip designed to help people find items in their bag easily. It uses a soft battery holder that makes the strip thin and compact. The outside is made out of leatherette so it is in keeping with the aesthetics of bags, although any fabric could be used. The bag light has a strap that can be pinned or clipped on to the inside of a bag. Check out this step by step guide to making your own BagLight.

This weeks new products are 10m lengths of Solid Core and Multi-stand cable for your electronics projects and we've put our Mono Amplifier Kit version 2 in a retail pack
