Students learn by doing, engaging in hands-on design, building, and testing of flying technologies and space rovers.
Students aged 9-11 delve into the principles of aeronautical and aerospace engineering. They gain hands-on experience by designing models of flying technologies, specifically those used for collecting aerial photographs. The curriculum also includes engineering rovers for space exploration, where students learn to address trade-offs and variables inherent in the engineering design process. Activities involve experimenting with different materials to understand their impact on flight dynamics, such as creating and testing paper airplanes. The program emphasizes learning by doing, encouraging problem-solving skills through encountering and overcoming design challenges.
A typical day involves students designing and building models of flying technologies or engineering rovers, followed by testing and refining their creations.
This camp is ideal for curious and experimental students aged 9-11 who are interested in how things fly and exploring space.
