Planting with Precision
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how engineers work to solve the challenges of a society, such as efficient planting and harvesting.

Measuring the Wind
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how anemometers work to record wind speeds and how the equipment has undergone engineering adaptations over time.

Low-Tech Water Filter for High-Impact Clean
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

Whirling Windmills
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners are challenged to design and construct a windmill to harness the power of wind.

Floodplain Modeling
In this design-based lesson, learners study flood dynamics as they modify a riverbed with blockages or levees to simulate real-world scenarios.

Aviary Architect
