In this activity, learners explore the concept of how engineering solved the problem of human/computer interface.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design tire treads to increase safety and reliability.

In this activity, learners explore how spring scales work and how they are used for non-exact weight measurement.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this environmental engineering activity, learners build windmills using everyday items. The first challenge is to build windmills that spin when placed in front of a fan.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have met the challenge of keeping foods, liquids, and other items cool.

In this activity, learners explore how the process of folding has impacts on engineering and is evident in nature.

As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF SciGirls Activity: Milk Carton Boat) is a full inquiry investigation into boat hull design.
