Power Engineers
Engineering
In the Power Engineers educational program, children unleash their imagination and ingenuity!
They incorporate electrical elements into their designs, experimenting with the fundamental physical concepts of energy, mass, force, and time!
The movement of the constructions is carried out with different forms of energy (electric, dynamic, wind, etc.). The involvement of the human factor in the movement of the structure is limited to its initiation or cessation.
At the same time, children deepen their programming knowledge by following teaching scenarios based on the story-based learning method. Furthermore, they pave the way for the first automation to be created by combining Engineering and Programming.
Power Engineers – Objectives
Upon completion of the program, students will have:
- built complex machines with the addition of electrical elements,
- gained experiential knowledge of key physical science concepts,
- used mathematics to calculate the mechanical advantage of their constructions and create patterns,
- coded in the Scratch programming language,
- improved their creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving abilities.
