Goals: Kids will learn that:
• they can use the Engineering Design Process to help solve problems
• engineers design technologies to help people and to solve problems
• they have talent and potential for designing and improving technologies
• they, too, can be engineers
![Page 11: Engineering Adventures: Educator Workshop. By the end of this workshop, you will… Know what it feels like to engineer Understand what it means to lead.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/551651f7550346c6758b5a24/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Kids best learn engineering when they:
• engage in activities that are fun, exciting, and connect to the world in which they live
• choose their path through open-ended challenges that have multiple solutions
• have the opportunity to succeed in engineering challenges
• communicate and collaborate in innovative, active, problem solving

Each Engineering Adventures Unit:
• engages kids in the Engineering Design Process
• sets a multicultural and real-life context for the challenge
• gives kids the chance to work in groups and share their work
• contains 6-10 activities with flexible scheduling options, written at a 3-5 grade level

Breaking it Down
How would you know if your kids were
successful in these activities?
![Page 40: Engineering Adventures: Educator Workshop. By the end of this workshop, you will… Know what it feels like to engineer Understand what it means to lead.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/551651f7550346c6758b5a24/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
In Engineering Adventures, what does success look like?
• Kids are engaged and challenged
• Kids share their ideas
• Kids value their engineering work as a process, not just as the end result

ScenariosWhat do you do when…it’s not working?
![Page 46: Engineering Adventures: Educator Workshop. By the end of this workshop, you will… Know what it feels like to engineer Understand what it means to lead.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/551651f7550346c6758b5a24/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Scenarios
Imagine that your technology was created by a group of your kids. They still have plenty of time to improve it.
• Come up with several questions you could ask your kids to help guide them to improve their design.
• Write each question down on a separate sticky note.
![Page 47: Engineering Adventures: Educator Workshop. By the end of this workshop, you will… Know what it feels like to engineer Understand what it means to lead.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/551651f7550346c6758b5a24/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Scenarios
Imagine that your technology was created by a group of your kids. This is their final design: they will NOT have time to improve.
• Come up with several questions you could ask your kids to help them explain the positives of their work and their place in the Engineering Design Process.
• Write each question down on a separate sticky note.
![Page 48: Engineering Adventures: Educator Workshop. By the end of this workshop, you will… Know what it feels like to engineer Understand what it means to lead.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/551651f7550346c6758b5a24/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Key Points• Asking questions about design choices
instead of fixing the problem yourself encourages kids to think through their own problems.
• Questions focusing on the design process can help all kids talk about their successes, even if their design isn’t yet meeting its goals.
• Asking every group how they might improve emphasizes that there is always room for improvement.
• Calling out the Improve step for kids helps them recognize “failure” as a natural and valuable part of engineering.

Pass It Along• Your device must pass a note across your
table.
• You can only use one puff of air to activate your device.
• You may use only the materials in your bag.
• You need to keep track of how your team is using each step of the Engineering Design Process.
• You have five minutes.

EA Unit StructureEach Engineering Adventures unit:
• begins with the same prep adventures that introduce kids to engineering and technology.
• contains an activity to set the context for the unit challenge.
• contains activities that build up to the final challenge.
• ends with a Showcase where kids present their work.

these units?
What questions do you have before you begin
working with these units?
What questions do you have about scheduling or
materials?
