Lesson Update:
We are exploring the Design Process in-depth! We have covered "Define the Problem", "Specifications and Investigations", "Generate Ideas", and "Select a Solution". We will continue to explore the rest of the steps next week (2 days) and we will start a design challenge (2 days) that will require students to use every step of the design process to solve a problem.
Assignment Update:
I am still working on grading the "Develop an Invention" Assignment! I am sorry that it takes so long but I am trying to give as much feedback as possible. They will be graded before the end of next week!
Looking ahead...
If you look at 3rd term coming to a close, 4th term is where it starts to get exciting! We have many project still to come...
-Penny Boat Design Challenge
-House Design Challenge
-Prosethtics Design Challenge
-Playground Design Challenge
And of course, continue to explore Hydroponics. See our Twitter feed? @WMSSTEMlab
Hopefully the snow is behind us and we will stay on schedule for the rest of the year!
-Keep up the great work!
