Brickbuilt Engineering Pop-Up Workshop
Class experience
Calling all AMBITIOUS brick creators! In this class, we will discover how using an engineering design process can push your brick building skills to the next level. This workshop is designed to help learners get started with using the ABCs of Design to tackle building goals that are fun, cool, and slightly intimidating. Every learner will have a chance to contribute their ideas about a project they think would be fun, cool, and hard to create. From there, we will discuss how to use...
In this workshop, students will learn how to: -- Discuss the engineering design process -- Reflect on how they use the engineering design process in their own building -- Describe how they built and designed a brickbuilt project -- Listen to other students sharing a design project -- Engage in iterative design to expand and extend a project
I'm a mechanical engineer and engineering educator who loves facilitating engineering challenges on Outschool.
Homework Offered
The goal of this class is to get started on a complex build. Learners are encouraged to keep using the ABCs of Design as they continue to refine their project. Everyone is welcome to upload a picture or video celebrating their final design in the classroom.Assessments Offered
Grades Offered
Students will need to bring their bricks to get the most out of this workshop experience, and should have enough bricks to fill 1 gallon size storage bag.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
This workshop is best suited for learners who can sustain their attention on one complex build for 40 minutes. If your student thrives in more rapid building challenges, I highly recommend either Engineering Design for Kids or the Bricktastic Engineering Challenge.
