1 ~Project Revive~ Unit 3 © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology - Real-world problems have both historically and currently been addressed through careful problem solving and engineering design technology from solutions generated from a problem solving process. However, more creative design solutions are often necessary for community based problems that impact enormous amount of users and in some instances nations or even the world. Often using reversed engineering principles help innovators from repeating design solutions that ultimately overtime have not been effective. By examining existing exemplars, students will design products to generate solutions to both nature made and human-made disasters that impact societies over several months and years.

2 Engagement BIG FOOT - The Impacts In your EDJ... DRAW a footprint as large as the page Make sure your footprint has five toes! © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology

3 BIG FOOT - The Impacts BIG FOOT - The Impacts Each of us has a carbon footprint that is as unique as we are. © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology What is a carbon footprint? Why should we offset a carbon footprint? On each toe, state facts about carbon footprints or state what we can do to reduce their impact on the earth. Search “carbon footprint” and fill in your footprint.

4 Words You Need to Know Carbon Dioxide  A chemical compound composed of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. It is often referred to by its formula CO2. It is present in the Earth's atmosphere at a low concentration and acts as a greenhouse gas. Carbon Footprint  a measure of the impact on the environment in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases produced, measured in units of carbon dioxide. © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology

5 Words You Need to Know Eco Friendly  'Environmentally friendly'  a term often used to refer to a product that is considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment. Amenities  feature that provides comfort, convenience, or pleasure  amenities, lavatory; bathroom © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology

6 Producing Engineering Design Technology Solutions BIG IDEA... © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology Now write the BIG IDEA of this lesson in your own words. Think about it... Developing technology based on designed solutions must be continuously monitored to ensure that the best outcomes are a result of its production. Careful attention to the sub-systems involved to make the final product work is the essence to ensuring that the whole product is a working model.

7 Systems make it work... What do think... © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology Systems necessary to make a community work.

8 Producing Engineering Design Technology Solutions What makes an Eco-Friendly Home? © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology -Maximizing energy efficiency -Minimizing energy Consumption -Maximizing water efficiency -Minimizing water consumption -Choosing sustainable building materials

9 Producing Engineering Design Technology Solutions What makes an Eco-Friendly Neighborhood? © 2011 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association, STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Exploring Technology -It Encourages walking -It Contains public spaces/recreation centers -It Contains a Public transportation system - It has a possibility for local food production -It Contains schools -It is located near areas of employment -Designed around nature
