For use an online dictionary I chose this article and find some words that I don’t Know so I put it in the dictionary www.answer.com and I find the meaning of the two words
The article was….
Engineering lessons for kids
It’s been 12 years since the Virginia Department of Education established a children’s engineering program for kindergarten through fifth grade. The program identifies technology-based experiences that enhance the content of selected courses in mathematics, science, and history. Activities range from designing a family map based on mathematical facts and solar cooking (first grade) to loading a supply truck and building bridges (fifth grade). Teachers discuss objectives and preparation for the program each year at an annual convention devoted to the cause.
Universities are taking the next age range under their wings in the interest of instilling engineering principles and applications. Rochester Institute of Technology enlisted a multidisciplinary senior design engineering team to design, build, and test a series of hands-on activities intended to increase awareness of and interest in engineering as a field of study. Their activities resulted in five “traveling engineering activity kits” (TEAK) centered on a theme of how engineering concepts are related to energy and the environment.
