The Puzzle Cube Project

I had to draw as many combinations as i can using three, four, five or six blocks. Out of those combinatons we had to choose five to make a cube. We had to sketch each piece and how they would fit together with a 3 by 3 constraint, and when  I finally found a combination using five pieces, I was able to actually make the cube and the packaging.

Engineer's Notebook

For this class, we need to have an engineer's notebook where we write everything down and sketch. it has to be on grid paper and we have to format it the correct way. Every time we do an activity, we write down the process, our ideas, and draw sketches. the following are notebook entries:

The History of Measurement

 

For this project, we were given papers with our assignments and it was based on measurents and their history. About how the metric system came to be and how it affects engineering and science in  many ways. We had to make a powerpoint answering all the questions and a CD cover explaining what was going to be learned within the powerpoint.

Beverage Container

We had to design a cup with a partner and modernize it by adding new feature that a regular styrofone cup doesnt have. after we drew it on a poster, we had to go on invertor and design like we had in the poster.

Evolution of the Telephone

We each had to choose on object and research it for this project. For example, who inented it, when, and how it was changed over the years. I chose to research the telephone, and did all my research online. Out of all the information i recieved, I made a power point which I later printed out and glued on the poster board.

Cup Innovator

For this class activity, we had to come up with ideas to make the current better in some ways. we had to sketch it out (on a poster board and the engineer's notebook) write down the new ideas, and actually make a model using a styrofoam cup. 

21st Century Inventions

For this assignment, the class had to make a power point picking four objects invented in the 21st century. We started with the introduction followed by th inventions and their explination of who invented it, when etc.  Closing with the conclusion- what we learned doing the power point and how all these inventions affect people and their everyday lives.
