1 Head injuries are affecting teens across the country in sports from skateboarding to ice hockey. Student athletes are required to wear head protection in many sports. What materials do designers employ in order to provide helmets that sufficiently protect athletes from impacts such as concussions? 1111 2222 3333 6666 5555 4444 Next Video and Image Source: NBC Learn Click on picture above to access video

2 You will use the following resources to gather information about football helmet construction and traumatic brain injury. Football Helmet Evolution Helmet Tech Traditional Football Helmet Next Generation Helmet These sites will assist you in completing your activity on slide 3. Consider the significance of key innovations as you take notes. Cornell notes 1111 2222 3333 6666 5555 4444 Next Image Source: ClipArt.com by subscription

3 Review the web resources below and refer to your notes you took from the sites on the previous slide as you complete the activities on slides 3 and 4. Brain Basics Concussion In this activity, you will decide which statements are true about our current understanding of the brain and concussions and which ones are false.activity 1111 2222 3333 6666 5555 4444 Next Image Source: Clip Art

4 Create the ultimate protective headwear for a sport you are interested in such as: skateboarding, soccer, biking, skating, lacrosse, football, etc. What materials/ shapes will you utilize in your design construction? Why did you choose these materials? Please include a picture of the protective gear. Include how the protective gear reduces the force that might otherwise damage the body. Support your response with details from your research and reading. Hand-write or type your response as directed by your teacher: You may type your response in the text box below and save this PowerPoint file to your My Documents folder, then Copy it to your teacher’s Drop folder on the Students (L:) drive. Make sure you incorporate your name as part of the title when you save. You may draw or sketch your design.sketch 1111 2222 3333 6666 5555 4444 Next
