  1. CU Science DiscoverySchool and Teacher Programs Engineering is Everywhere:Learning and Solving Problems with Design Process Models

  2. What is Engineering Engineering is the application of scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge to, design, build, and maintain structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes. Just about everything we build is designed and engineered first, so if you think about it, Engineering is Everywhere!

  3. What is Engineering? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bipTWWHya8A

  4. What is Engineering There are many types of engineers: aerospace, agricultural, biological, biomedical, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, environmental, geological, industrial, marine, mechanical, mining, nuclear, petroleum, systems engineers, interdisciplinary engineers and more! Engineers help shape the future:Engineers use the latest science, math, tools and technologies to bring ideas to life!

  5. What is Engineering? No Profession unleashes the spirit of innovation like engineering! Engineers make a world of difference Engineers, like scientists, use a process to guide their efforts! Engineers are creative problem-solvers:Engineers use collaboration, ideating, research, practices to design or clothes, tools, chairs, lights, buildings, our cities, states and nations

  6. Inquiry and Design Process Science Inquiry Process Engineering Design Process Define the Opportunity and Gather Relevant Information Define the Question and Gather Relevant Information Choose a Potential Solution and Design a Model to Test It Develop Conclusions From Data and Share the Results Create a Hypothesis and an Experiment to Test it Develop Conclusions From Data and Share the Results Test the Model(s) vs. Parameters & Collect and Analyze the Data Conduct the Experiment & Collect and Analyze the Data Goal: To Discover How Something Works/Functions Goal: To Discover How To Make or Do Something
