Over the course of four weeks, students will expand their skills in:
-- Explaining nuclear radiation using models of atomic decay
-- Understanding the benefits and hazards of nuclear power
-- Advocating for the importance of risk management 
-- Analyzing engineering design choices

I am a mechanical engineer and engineering educator who loves thinking about how the world works. I've enjoyed thinking about all of the ways Chernobyl has impacted global energy discussions, and I find the engineering considerations of the clean-up operations to be absolutely fascinating and compelling.

Learners will be provided with insights about how to extend their learning after each class. These assignments will come from our class discussions. I do try to ensure that in-between class challenges are as hands-on as possible. However, given the topic of nuclear radiation, these experiments will likely be virtual simulations or making 3 dimensional models of structures. Home makerspace supplies such as craft sticks, pipe cleaners, cutting foam, cardboard, and interlocking bricks will be helpful when constructing 3 dimensional models.
