1 How are Science and Math Used in Engineering?
Chapter 1 - Lesson 1

2 solves a problem or meets a need
Technology solves a problem or meets a need

3

4 Take a walk around the classroom and write down at least 10 examples of technology.

5 How have some of the technologies you’ve listed improved?

6 Think of all aspects of your breakfast.
Technology is used to cook food, but technology is also used to harvest crops, process food, and transport food. Discuss as a whole group.

7 Think of all the aspects of your trip to school today.
How is technology used? Discuss with your group.

8 Where are you least likely to see technology?
You cannot see much technology when you go into nature, such as on a hike.

9 Sooooooo………………….. who designs and builds things to solve specific problems? Engineers!

10

11 What do engineers do? Engineers solve problems, and design solutions to meet needs and wants.

12

13 What is a problem you would like to solve?

14 Criteria - the rules or directions that must be followed; they are the requirements that must be met. Ex: marshmallow challenge - The tower must be freestanding Constraint - restrictions that keep something from being the best that it can be. They can be problems that arise or issues that come up. Ex: May only use 20 pieces of spaghetti and 1 yard of tape

18 What is technology and what is not?
Engineered (technology) Not Engineered (not technology)

19 Lesson 1 Part 2

20 New tools designed by engineers may, in turn, lead to new scientific discoveries. What does this mean?

21 Scientists conduct research and investigations to add to our knowledge.

22

23 Engineers and scientists use some of the same ways of doing things.
Both scientists and engineers see a problem and ask questions about it. What are some examples? Both scientists and engineers think about the specifics and use models to design a solution.

24 How can we define technology?
Technology is the products and processes designed to solve a problem or meet a need. Engineering MAKES technology. Examples of technology that engineers designed are smartphones and cars.

25 Scientists discover new things about the world and universe around us.
Engineers use these scientific discoveries to help design and make new technology. Ideas can build on one another over time to produce totally new solutions.

26 Advances in science often lead to advances in engineering, and advances in engineering lead to advances in science.
