======DOTSY: Logic and Circuits======

Some students will be familiar with a game called Yahtzee.  This activity involves a variety of game structures that will teach students the concepts of formal logic, which is founded on the concepts of AND, OR and NOT.  Using a simple roll of the dice, students are asked whether they got a "good roll" based on the conditions they were looking for.

In this interactive, a "Good Roll" of the dice is defined by several logical conditions, and an electrical circuit shows how a dice sensor could decide automatically whether you have a good roll. Since there is no dice sensor, you have to connect the switches when you see the desired numbers. 

Can you predict the results of these automated circuits? Click on the image to use the interactive.
