All Systems Go!

工程设计经验(EDE) -设计，建造，测试和评估，以及沟通-被纳入三个，6-8周的中学生单元。每个单元都是基于一个“技术挑战”，要求学生作为一个设计团队来构建并展示他们对挑战的解决方案。设计挑战包括在六年级、七年级和八年级分别设计一个玩具、一辆汽车和一个游乐园的游乐设施。这些材料让学生参与真实的工程挑战，成为学习数学、科学、技术教育、社会科学和语言艺术概念和技能的背景，适合中学生。学生、教师和社区成员组成学习团队，学生承担各种工程和营销角色。这些产品包括印刷材料、动手工具包、视频和视频光盘参考材料，并辅以软件工具。这些材料由来自工业界的工程师带到学校，他们在学生和教师参与挑战时与他们互动。＊＊＊

9450278 Boynton The Engineering Design Experience (EDE) - designing, constructing, testing and evaluating, and communicating - is incorporated in three, 6-8 week units for middle school students. Each unit is based on a "technological challenge" which requires the students to work as a design team to build and present their solutions to the challenge. The design challenges include development of a toy, a vehicle and an amusement park ride at sixth, seventh and eighth grades respectively. The materials engage students in authentic engineering challenges which become the context for learning mathematics, science, technology education, social sciences and language arts concepts and skills appropriate to middle school students. The students, teachers and community members form learning teams in which students assume various engineering and marketing roles. The products include print materials, hands-on kits, and videos and videodisc reference materials, complemented by software tools. The materials are brought to schools by engineers from industry who interact with the students and teachers as they engage the challenges. ***
