Description
ENGINEERING: DESIGN PROCESS CAMP - Afternoon Camp Session
The design process emphasizes open-ended problem solving and encourages students to learn from failure. First Attempt In Learning (FAIL). The Design Process is iterative, meaning students will repeat the steps, guiding them to create innovative solutions to problems, while making improvements along the way. Students will have fun learning more about the importance of design and collaboration as they create a product.
Supplies that you will need (most likely can find around the house):
- straws
- ruler
- scissors
- tape
- permanent marker
- paper
- round beads (If no beads, find things you can use as wheels)
