Rube Goldberg• Students create an original machine / contraption based on the

Pulitzer Prize winning artist, Rube Goldberg.

• His drawings of machines are an inspiration to aspiring engineers, scientists, and artists around the world.

• It is a way to engage students in critical thinking and problem-solving in a non-traditional learning environment, and have fun in the process.

• The process of building and seeing success empowers students through experiential project-based learning that develops essential skills for thriving in a global society.
