YOUNG ENGINEERS CLUB

e² Young Engineers is an award-winning global "edutainment" experience, recognized by the Harvard School of Education for its impact on children's focus, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Using Lego-style bricks, gears, and motorized moving parts, your child will build and experiment with a challenging new model each session.

e² = education x entertainment = Edutainment

TOY MAKING CHALLENGE

This is an educational program that introduces children to the principles

of STEM and basic subjects of classical mechanics through the use of building

blocks and mechanical parts.

Children delve into various facets of basic classical mechanics like laws of physics, forces, energy, torque, leverage, load distribution, and angular momentum and more.

Curriculum Overview

Students learn many different aspects of classical mechanics, including the following: the laws of physics, centrifugal force, centripetal force, force of inertia, kinetic energy, potential energy, law of action-reaction, lift force, torque, leverage points, load distribution, force conservation, angular momentum and more. Participants learn the necessary mathematical skills required in making the scientific calculations needed to build their models.

Objectives

Foster planning and time management skills
Encourage independent creative thinking
Develop one’s ability to analyze engineering processes
Broaden knowledge of laws of physics and various natural phenomena
Improve spatial recognition
Cultivate a sense of self-efficacy
Expand interpersonal communication skills

Challenging Models

Amusement park rides

Air crafts

Various types of transportation machines

Cranes

Elevators

Modern machinery

"P" Based Learning

Problem Based Learning: After the construction of a model, our Young Engineers instructors will ask the student to enhance their model in order to solve a given problem demonstrated in that lesson.

Product Based Learning: Students build a product that demonstrates the scientific principles taught in that lesson.

Project Based Learning: Through planning and executing a project from start to finish, students develop their team-building and presentation skills. In addition, they will improve their organizational and time management abilities.

Spiral Learning

Our instructors teach the principles and terms of a given lesson on a basic level. The next step of the spiral is introducing these principles in new contexts, and then greater depth with each step.

Academic Success

After extensive testing by the Center for Cooperative Advancement, statistics show that students participating in Young Engineers enrichment programs achieve higher grades in all science subjects taught in school.
