1.Design It! Build It! Test It! Engineering Design in the ClassroomeMINTS National Center Conference February 28, 2014

2. Design It! Build It! Test It! http://emintsdesign.weebly.com/ Michelle Kendrick eMINTS Program CoordinatorNancy Shively 5 8th Grade Science Holy Rosary School Monroe City Who are you? 3. Why Design? 4. Gravity Cruiser Design Challenge 5. Team Building Groups of Four I am . I do Team Name 6. Design It! Build It! Test It! In your group: Brainstorm What does this company need? What do children need? What must your design provide? 7. Design It! Build It! Test It! We must create a toy that. 1. 2. 3. 4. 8. Design It! Build It! Test It! In your group, build the best chassis you can. What materials should you use? What variables should you test? What do you know about testing variables? 9. Design It! Build It! Test It! How did your group do? What decisions did you make? What things did you learn about building the chassis? 10. Brainstorm Can you create a car that moves forward using only gravity for power? Play and sketch 11. In your group create a graphic that represents how your group approached the design. 12. Design Models Stanford School of Design 13. Design Models Engineering is Elementary 14. Design Models NASA 15. Design Models Teach Engineering 16. Our ModelEducreations Design Model 17. Does our model represent modern design thinking?What are our goals? 18. We decided. Model for messiness. Focus on the Science Practices Controlling variables Multiple trials Measurement Plan the content ahead but weave it in where it fits. Just in time learning. 19. Think to Learn Sylvia Libow Martinez Gary Stager, Ph.D. ThinkMakeImprove 20. Introduce the Problem Letter from Earth Toy DesignsTeam-Building Form teams and build their capacity to work together 21. Team Building 22. Engineering Notebooks 23. Design and Build the ChassisThink Force and Motion / Simple Machine content Science Imagine, Sketch, Plan practices: Make Build chassis and test Controlling Improve variables Change one variable at a time discuss with peers, consult an expert 24. Design 25. Reflect Connections to science content.Making the most of mistakes. Working well together. 26. Think - Gravity What do we know about gravity? Researched Galileos Gravity Experiments Designed their own experiments to test Galileos theory. Dropped objects of same size with different weight Dropped object with different size but same weight. 27. Build the Cruiser - Think 28. Sketch - Electronically 29. Make: Build Cruiser 30. Improve 31. Final Car Run 32. Final Car Run 33. Data Table 34. Graph What is the relationship between speed and the line on your graph? 35. Reflection What did you learn from your mistakes? What did you learn from watching the other cars? What did you learn about working together? What did you learn about force and motion that you might use in your life? Simple machines? 36. Fotobabble for Reflection 37. Then what? 38. http://makerspace.com/ 39. How might you use design-based engineering tasks? 40.
