Activities
Experimenting with Forces
Students will learn how forces affect motion and stability by experimenting with force tables, pulleys, and weights. These hands-on activities introduce fundamental physics in a way that's fun and easy to understand.
Building Structures
Using kits like LEGO Technic and others, students will design and test models of bridges and towers. They’ll learn how real engineers ensure stability and strength in buildings.
Exploring Electronics
Students will assemble circuits on breadboards, learn to program Arduino microcontrollers, and use tools like multimeters to measure voltage and current. They'll even create simple devices like LED blinkers or motion sensors!
Hydraulic Experiments
Students will build and test hydraulic systems, like miniature lifts or pneumatic arms, learning the principles that make machines like car brakes and robot arms work.
Creative Woodworking
Combining engineering principles with craftsmanship, students will build items like birdhouses or small shelves. They’ll also use modern tools like CNC machines and 3D printers to add advanced designs.
Objectives
1. Develop Critical Thinking
Through problem-solving challenges, students learn how to approach issues creatively and think like engineers.
2. Build Practical Skills
Hands-on activities teach students how to use tools, work with materials, and apply scientific principles in everyday situations.
3. Foster Teamwork and Collaboration
Group projects help students learn how to share ideas, divide tasks, and achieve goals together, just like real-world engineers.
4. Encourage Innovation
Students will design and create unique solutions to challenges, sparking their creativity and confidence in STEM fields.
Projects
1. Structural Stability Challenge
Students will design and test a miniature bridge or tower using model kits. They’ll analyze how weight and materials affect stability, learning the same principles that engineers use to design skyscrapers and bridges.
2. Build Your First Circuit
In this project, students will assemble an electronic circuit with LEDs, resistors, and sensors. They’ll learn to program a microcontroller to control their creation, like a light that reacts to movement.
3. Hydraulic Lift Model
Students will create a small hydraulic system, such as a lifting platform, and see how fluids power machines in everyday life. This project teaches the mechanics behind cranes and car lifts.
4. Create a Birdhouse
Using woodworking tools, students will design and construct their own birdhouse. They’ll learn to measure, cut, assemble, and finish their project, creating something beautiful and functional.
5. Final Team Project: Build a Food Drive Cart
In this collaborative project, students will design and build a functional cart to transport food donations for a community initiative. They’ll apply all the skills they’ve learned in engineering, design, and teamwork to create a durable and practical solution.
