This month`s groovy
Engineering Design Challenge has a call to action for "citizen science" - You are a groovy mechanical engineer who is inspired by the story of a young boy from Malawi, who, at fourteen years old, battled through extreme poverty to build a series of windmills from scratch that could generate electricity for his village – a luxury enjoyed by only 2 percent in Malawi. Using only the materials in your
Groovy Lab in a Box, can you design and build a windmill which can fetch a pail of grooviness for those in need?
STEMists will learn the mechanics of windmills, blade design performance and how energy is transferred from wind into usable energy. Acquire various science and engineering practices aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards. Groovy Lab in a Box is hands-on STEM, project based learning made FUN!
Fellow STEMists who want to become
groovy mechanical engineers and help others can be on their way to doing research and investigations through the engineering design process found in the renewable energy powered-themed Groovy Lab in a Box. Every Groovy Lab in a Box comes with a groovy, retro-themed Lab Notebook where STEMists will take notes, draw pictures, design and redesign their engineering design challenge, and apply their critical thinking skills - just like real engineers. Plus, all groovy STEMists get access to the Beyond...in a Box web portal for additional groovy learning and STEM fun!
Be sure to start a Groovy Lab in a Box subscription today before this box ships on
March 31st, with
FREE SHIPPING!
