This will be an experimental class where students use their creativity and reasoning skills to put their engineering skills into practice. Students will create a freestanding building and a bridge made out of uncooked spaghetti and marshmallows. The class will begin with basic specifications, goals and objectives. Students through trial and error will allow their potential to unfold. Students scientific reasoning will be amazing, mindset will shift, problems will be solved, and thinking will be dynamic. Students will receive feedback and encouragement during the class.
