Feats and Flops
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-58406-5 (ISBN)
Designed to meet the needs of gifted students in grades 6 and up, this book will enable you to expertly guide your students through using the engineering design process, SCAMPER, and a new tool called “My Maker’s Map” to innovate solutions to both hypothetical and personal situations in their own lives. By the end of the unit, students will have created a working prototype of their design, presented it to a group of judges in a Shark Tank-esque Junior competition, filed a mock patent application, and conceptualized a marketing campaign. In addition, students will participate in various problem-based learning tasks and organize a Maker Fair for their school.
Standards aligned and full of tips, handouts, and resources, this ready to use curriculum model requires no additional research or prep work and is a must-have for teachers interested in providing an engaging, differentiated, and hands-on engineering design experience for their students.
