STEM Club Activity: Moving House
This activity sheet for students will enable them to demonstrate the idea of reinforced materials and conclude which is the best to choose for a specific task, in this case constructing buildings resistant to earthquakes and high winds. The work of a structural engineer is also profiled.
STEM Club Activity: milking it
This activity looks at the use of plastics. Because the manufacture of plastics requires huge quantities of oil and produces pollutants including greenhouse gases alternative sources of raw materials are required. This activity will enable students to explore how to make plastics and experiment with different...
STEM Club Activity: Keeping It Cool
This resource will introduce ideas about keeping materials and tools cool whilst in space, and try to encourage the students to apply these ideas during a hands on activity.
The students work in groups to design, make, test and evaluate an appropriate heatshield to protect a square of chocolate from a heat...
Engineering enables
The development of running blades has greatly enhanced the running ability of amputees and people born without legs. In this activity students learn more about how the inventor of running blades applied the scientific concept of potential elastic energy and biomimicry to design a high performance prosthetic leg....
