Trash Catastrophe Part 1
Students work their way through the first two parts of the engineering process in order to get a deeper understanding of an environmental problem- trash. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is certainly an environmental problem worth tackling, but what many students don't realize is the problem starts right in the classroom. Students narrow down the problem in scope after collecting authentic data in their own school. This lesson sets students up for part two, where they set out to solve the problem.
