In my fellowship at Facebook I am learning about crafting a retail communications plan for the new Meta Store that the company has built as a model on their Reality Labs campus.
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.
Students will learn about climate change, and will consider how semiconductors play a role in developing energy resources that are renewable.
In this lesson from Electrify America, students will use salt dough to build circuits to light an LED bulb.
In this lesson from Electrify America, students will identify energy transformations by building a simple DC motor and draw connections to motors in electric vehicles.
In this lesson, students will learn about computer simulations for engineering before they develop a GPA calculator and visualizer using a spreadsheet program (Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel).
In this lesson from Electrify America, students will research charging stations and energy sources and then will develop a position paper identifying the effect of the increased need of electricity in their town to deliver in a debate.
The main objective of the lesson is to provide 4th grade students with an opportunity to experience the engineering design process.
For two crazy months in the summer of 2020, Miss D was an Ignited Teacher Fellow at Lockheed Martin, Space’s PMP Lab.
