Science and Engineering for Grades 6-12: Investigation and Design at the Center (2019) Science and Engineering for Grades 6-12: Investigation and Design at the Center (2019) Science and Engineering for Grades 6-12: Investigation and Design at the Center revisits America’s Lab Report: Investigations in High School Science in order to consider its discussion of laboratory experiences and teacher and school readiness in an updated context. It considers how to engage today’s middle and high school students in doing science and engineering through an analysis of evidence and examples. This report provides guidance for teachers, administrators, creators of instructional resources, and leaders in teacher professional learning on how to support students as they make sense of phenomena, gather and analyze data/information, construct explanations and design solutions, and communicate reasoning to self and others during

2011 Engineering & Human Service - Relief from a Disaster Guidelines 2011 Engineering & Human Service - Relief from a Disaster Guidelines disaster presents unique challenges and requires fast and decisive action to save lives and limit damages. Engineers are involved in designing many products specifically for use in disaster zones such as portable medical equipment, oil skimmers, or basic shelters. Identify an item designed specifically for use in disaster relief, and then do some research on it to write your essay. Flood, famine, earthquake, tsunami, oil spill, blackout, building collapse, mining accident, wildfire, hurricane, tornado, terrorist attack—all have been headline news in recent years. Disasters, both natural and man-made, can take many forms. Every
SME Education Foundation Scholarship SME Education Foundation Scholarship must have a permanent address in the U.S. or Canada, a minimum GPA of 2.0, and be either a graduating high school senior or current undergraduate or graduate student who will be enrolling as part-time or full-time student at an accredited college or university in the U.S. or Canada for the next fall term. The SME Education Foundation desires to encourage youth to pursue careers in the STEM (Science, Technology Engineering and Mathematics) fields. This foundation particularly focuses on engineering and technology. To apply for this scholarship one

National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Scholarships National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) Scholarships The NSPE offers a number of scholarships for aspiring engineers at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Specifically, the The Maureen L. & Howard N. Blitman, P.E., Scholarship to Promote Diversity in Engineering is awarded annually to a high school senior from an ethnic minority who has been accepted into an ABET-accredited engineering program, and the NSPE auxiliary Legacy Scholarship is awarded annually to a female undergraduate entering the junior year of a four-year ABET-accredited engineering program.

ENGINEERING Challenge #1 - Engineering.com ENGINEERING Challenge #1 - Engineering.com Welcome to the ENGINEERING.com Challenge #1. This first challenge (yes, more are to follow) is a refresher on some basic engineering, algebra and physics principles. Most of these concepts are referenced in first year engineering textbooks. Hint: Some of these require a little "out of the box" thinking. But as an engineer that shouldn't be a problem.
Sarah Robles and the Mechanics of Weightlifting Sarah Robles and the Mechanics of Weightlifting U.S. weightlifter Sarah Robles will rely on an athletic mix of strength, speed and timing to help create explosive power when she competes at the 2012 Summer Olympics. Robotics engineer Brian Zenowich compares Robles’ movements to those made by the WAM Arm, one of the world’s most advanced robotic arms.

Iceberg Below the Water: The Ice-Cream Process Iceberg Below the Water: The Ice-Cream Process cookie dough and chocolate chips. All you want to do is rush home, take a spoon and start devouring the pint until it all melts in your mouth and brings a huge smile to your face. This story only reveals the tip of the iceberg but there is a very It is 10 pm at night, perfect time for a sweet snack to end the day on a sweet note. You put your sweatshirt on and head to the deli around the corner. You open the fridge right behind the entrance and grab a pint of vanilla ice-cream with chunks of long and tedious process put into making ice cream and delivering to your door. For the last 2 years, I have been working as a Supply Manager in one of the biggest global organizations that produce Ice-Cream. I want to explain to you the process of making ice cream from beginning to end and what type of engineers are involved with the process.
