Inhaltsangabe

Teaching the Engineering Design Process (EDP) when doing a science fair project is different than other learning experiences because it has multiple, naturally occurring frustrating spikes for both you and your students. Excellent for Distance Learning.

The inquiry-based lesson plans are designed to help reduce the students fear of failure due to these frustrations.

Using the inquiry-based lesson plans will also relieve you from preparing and teaching piles of information that is required of a STEM curriculum. Instead, you will be a facilitator of learning. The book will show you how to wean your students from being dependent on you and gradually you will be able to shift the work to your students. They will be given the opportunity to figure out how to think systematically, solve problems and find answers to their questions. To survive and thrive, your students will learn to develop a stick-to-it attitude.

Students will be able to work in teams or each student can do his/her own project. If teams are formed, you will be given guidelines as to how to form these teams.

Students are given a checklist of outcomes after each important step.

Here are the highlights from the 39 Lesson Plans. They will learn how to...:

• keep a Design Notebook.
• identify a need.
• choose a problem or need to solve.
• write a Problem Statement.
• do Project Research.
• specify Design Requirements.
• write a Design Brief.
• write a Design Solution.
• write a procedure plan.
• test and build a prototype.
• collect data and draw conclusion.
• write a Project Report and Abstract.
• create an extraordinary science fair display board.

A Parent's Guide assists parents on how to help their child without doing the work for them. A chart shows parents how to assist their child at each important step.

There is a unique Timeline that will help students to accomplish small outcomes so that they don't get overwhelmed by this long project.

The Student's Science Fair Guide Using the Engineering Design Process is included in this book, plus a bonus book: Building Your Student's Confidence.
