Gone with the Wind- Building a Sailcar
Students will learn about wind as a type of renewable energy--and how its kinetic energy can be transferred to another object--by building a wind-powered car.
Ignite Your Creativity!
Working in pairs, students will develop an invention or product using semiconductors that has the potential to solve a problem.
LEGO Build Some Microchips
Working in teams, students will build microchips using LEGOs, while practicing their soft skills in order to prepare the chips so they are ready for manufacturing.
Semiconductor Innovations
Students will go through the Engineer Design process to invent a piece of wearable technology. They will interview consumers, ideate solutions, analyze data, and build a prototype to present to the class.
Sustainability & Renewable Energy
Students will learn about climate change, and will consider how semiconductors play a role in developing energy resources that are renewable.
Semiconductor Career Research
Students will select one company involved in Apple's iPhone supply chain, and will investigate careers available at that company, and the education path that could lead them to that career.
Matrices and Semiconductors
Students will use semiconductors to perform mathematical operations which helps to solve their matrices.
Transition to Electric Cars
Students will investigate how a switch to electric vehicles will affect climate change, and if the costs incurred will be low enough to convince the average consumer that it is a worthwhile investment.
Transition to Electric Cars
In this SEMI Foundation lesson plan, students will explore the advantages and challenges of transitioning to electric vehicles by comparing emissions, costs, and incentives through collecting data, graphing data, and writing equations.
