Egg Engineering Team Challenge Your engineering firm has been asked to design a model. You’ll be part of a team working to protect astronauts when crash landing. Your job is to design something that will keep an egg intact when dropped from a certain height. The egg represents an astronaut. Your task will require three different parts: • A capsule to protect the egg • A test stand that drops the capsule • A control circuit that holds the capsule until the start of the test Resource:Egg Engineering Team Challenge (Egg Engineering Handbook [EEH] pgs. 8-9)
Drop Test Video • You will view video on what Egg Engineering is - Drop Test Video (Appendix 11). • You will record what you have viewed from the video onto their Egg Engineering Template (Appendix 10). • Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzWGLDQSaNiLSk1FTEZVVThMblk/view?usp=sharing
Design Trades, Criteria and Constraints • Presentation (scored on rubric) • Collaboration (scored on rubric) • Construction of Spacecraft (scored on scorecard) • Construction of Circuit (scored on scorecard) • Construction of Test Hardware (scored on scorecard) • Budget for Supplies (scored on scorecard) Resource:Egg Engineering Team Challenge (EEH pgs. 8-9)
Research Time • You will be researching Engineering, Circuits, and Electromagnets as a team • Please write your research findings on the Egg Engineering Workspace (EEH pg. 10-14)
Feedback is the Breakfast for Champions • You will take 2 minutes to list how your team worked after day 2 aligned to their group norms. • You will share out your findings. The audience will give critical feedback and possible solutions on what the team can do better tomorrow. • Each group will have 1 minutes to share. • Audience will have 1 minute to provide critical feedback and possible solutions. • The team receiving feedback will write it down on their feedback template. Teams will make adjustments if needed.
Student Reflection and Summary • What is the Engineering Design Process (EDP)? • What are the steps in the Engineering Design Process (EDP)? • How does Engineering Design Process (EDP) apply to real life? • What research did you find about Egg Engineering? • What other information do you need in order to begin creating your blueprint and model?
Engineers Entrance Procedures As an Engineer, I will… • Walk in silently, pick up my Folder • Find my seat, take out my KLEWS Chart and PENCIL, place it on my desk, and place my everything else under your table neatly • Silently begin my KLEWS Chart • After I complete my KLEWS Chart, I will take out the following handouts: • EDP Handout (Appendix 9) • Egg Engineering Team Challenge Handout (Appendix 12) • Egg Engineering Template (Appendix 10) • Blueprint Feedback Form (Appendix 13) • Feedback Template (Appendix 7) • Daily Student Reflection and Summarizing Template (Appendix 4) • When the timer or music goes off, I will SLANT and wait to recite the Class Pledge, Class Motto, and Eagle Norms • What Should I Have on My Desk… • Team Folder • Notebook • Pencil • Markers • What Should be Placed Neatly in the under your table… • Sweaters • Novels • Anything else
Class Discussion Questions • What information from your KLEWS chart will you use today as you are creating your blueprint? • What information do you still need?
Lesson Connection • Blueprints and diagrams are one way engineers communicate their designs. The written word is another way. • In any event, the ability to clearly communicate your design to others is critical. • Decisions makers need to understand what you want to build. Customers need to understand what you are building so they can decide to buy it. Manufacturing needs to be able to actually produce what you design. Maintenance needs to understand your design so they can keep it working. • In order for your task to be done successfully, you will need to be able to visualize and design, on paper, what your model will look like with dimensions and labels.
Today’s Lesson • You will begin on the design phase of your model - circuit, spacecraft, and test hardware box. • You will need to create a blueprint of your models with dimensions and labels.
Blueprint Examples Link: http://www.me.umn.edu/courses/me2011/handouts/drawing/blanco-tutorial.html
Circuits For the electrical, you would usually do this as a schematic and not have actual dimensions except maybe for the wire going to the magnet.
Spacecraft • The spacecraft should hold the egg in a sealed plastic bag to prevent a mess in case of breakage. • The drawing should show how the egg is inserted and secured.
Test Hardware Box • The box provides a way to hold the spacecraft until testing. The electromagnet from the electronics should mount to the top of the box so the spacecraft will stay put until the release button. Typically, a removable shelf will hold the egg until the magnet is engaged and then be removed prior to the test. • This can be as simple as a large cardboard box with window and access holes, a slot for the shelf, and the shelf (perhaps from the cut out part of a window) along with a mounting hole for the electromagnet.
Design Trades, Criteria and Constraints • Review the constraints, design trades and criteria for each model • Egg Engineering Team Challenge (EDH pgs. 8-9) • Remember, you will be graded on how well you adhere to the Design Trades, Criteria and Constraints • Eggs should have astronauts drawn on them
Criteria For Success for Blueprint • You must include measurements for all 3 models: circuit, spacecraft, and test hardware box • You must label each part of all 3 models: circuit, spacecraft, and test hardware box • You must have sufficient detail on your blueprint that someone could build what is on your blueprint without having to ask you questions Egg Engineering Workspace (EDH pgs. 10-14) Time: 30 Minutes
Feedback is the Breakfast for Champions • Teams will place their blueprints onto their table. • You will give feedback to the other engineering teams on their blueprints. • Each group will rotate to each group and write feedback on the Blueprint Feedback Form to other teams. • You will leave the sheet of feedback on the table. Time: Each rotation will be 2 minutes
Feedback is the Breakfast for Champions • As groups are rotating, you will need to answer the following questions: • How did the teams create their blueprints? • What are their measurements? • What are their constraints? • What are their design trades? • Did the team meet the criteria of success for the blueprint? • Note: Scientific Journalist should be the person writing the feedback. The Principal Investigator should be asking the questions to the team. Every team member should contribute to the discussion.
Feedback is the Breakfast for Champions • You will take 2 minutes to list how your team worked after day 4 aligned to their group norms. • You will share out your findings. The audience will give critical feedback and possible solutions on what the team can do better tomorrow. • Each group will have 1 minute to share. • Audience will have 1 minute to provide critical feedback and possible solutions. • The team receiving feedback will write it down on their feedback template. Teams will make adjustments if needed.
