In this activity, learners investigate Scanning Probe Microscopes (SPM) and then work in teams using a pencil to explore and identify the shape of objects they cannot see, just as SPMs do at the nano

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

In this activity, learners work individually to assemble a product and then work in teams to design, construct, test, and redesign an assembly line process whose product must meet specific quality con

In this activity, learners explore watercraft engineering and sailing.

In this activity, learners explore how product design differences can affect the success of a final product -- in this case a bag for holding candy.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how brakes can stop or slow mechanical motion.

In this activity, learners explore computer programming and the impact of computers on society. Learners build and test a program to turn a light on and off using an Arduino board.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has developed various means to remove impurities from water.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted the design and engineering of many everyday items from paint to fabrics.

This lesson focuses on surface area and how the shape of sugar crystals may differ as they are grown from sugars of different coarseness.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering and principles behind working elevators.

In this activity, learners demonstrate and discuss simple circuits as well as the differences between parallel and serial circuit design and functions.
