Each session contains projects based on Passion, Collaboration with Peers, and a Playful Spirit. It is full of hands-on, memorable, meaningful, and motivating activities specially designed for learners 11 to 15 years old. This is a discovery class whose only academic requirement is a passion for learning and creating. In this live course, each student will: - Participate in a class with other learners in their age group (11 - 15), discovering how STEM is a part of their everyday life. - Enjoy fourteen hours of personalized project-based instruction and interest-based projects. - Learn to design, build, and create models that will require an engineer's eye using everyday household materials. - Collaborate with small groups (6 learners maximum per session) with one adult certified live instructor. Syllabus/Topics covered: Week 1 (Science & Engineering) - Engineering & Engineers. - How to Think like a Creator. - Design a Model that might solve a problem found in their Community. Week 2 (Technology) - Share an update on their previous model. - Problems/Solutions/Technology. - Design a Technology to help us survive on a deserted island. Week 3 (Civil Engineering) - Share an update on their Solution. - Civil Engineering. - Design a Structure to protect us from the environment.

Metas de aprendizaje
Engineers play an important role in our everyday lives; in this course, we will be learning the basics of engineering and how engineering impacts our everyday life.
Students will learn about the engineering design process in our engineering class and how that contributes to everyday life.
In this course, students will put on their engineering caps and test their abilities by creating different projects related to the engineering field discussed for the day.
Students will learn that being an engineer starts as a model and will create model designs using materials easily found at home to complete projects.
With the instructor's guide, students will learn that they, too, can be a part of the engineering process if they are willing to try.
