Les modules Totem sont des modules électroniques simples destinés à être utilisés dans des ateliers, en classe, à la maison ou pour tout besoin de prototypage. Ils sont utiles quand vous avez besoin d'utiliser des modules électroniques peu chers et facile à utiliser qui ne transforment *pas* les circuits en boites-noires magiques. Toute la documentation sur les modules Totem est sous CC-BY-SA, et vous êtes donc libre de la partager et de l'utiliser.
The first version was designed for a 250 persons workshop at Pompidou Center in Paris, “Je suis une vraie pile électrique !” (yes, that's two hundred and fifty beta-testers. Cool, isn't it? )

About: Why Totem modules? What are they?
What can I do with Totem modules?
Totem modules can be used in many ways. We already have tested two different activities based on them during “je suis une vraie pile électrique !”. We also learned than they can be connected in different ways: by using crocodile cables; by putting them on a aluminum track; or by simply making them touch each others. It would be cool to test making connection using conductive ink or metal rails!
There's obviously more to explore! There's new activities to invent and new modules to build - what about sensors? Or buzzers? A fool-proof led module that works both ways would be nice for the kids, and quite simple to design and share.
