Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions

In this engaging lesson, students will connect the path of a straw rocket to the arc of a parabola. By changing the angle of the launcher, they will discover the relationship between distance and

More VR integration in the classroom, oh my! This is the second lesson of a two-day exploration of chain reactions. On day one, students received a general overview of chain reactions, Rube Goldberg
