Description
The NGSS Engineering standards require that students work in groups to analyze, break-down, and model real-world problems in order to fully understand the challenges that these problems pose. In this session, we present a few ideas for short-term engineering/technology-based problems that can be completed in the classroom within about 2 weeks. The projects are linked to concepts of physics such as forces, momentum and torque.
