According to a 2019 survey, Nevada's top five in demand careers are electrical engineer, industrial engineer, machinist, assembler and production manager. All of these high demand jobs require a fundamental understanding of the engineering process, design and assembly. However, this generation of students has not had the opportunity to play with engineering in a way that sparks curiosity and leads to a desire to solve problems. Using the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) as a guide, my students will use the materials I am requesting to explore the concepts of identifying a problem, designing a solution by looking at constraints and materials, and carrying out tests to address possible failure points. Specifically, my students will define a problem as it exists in the context of an engineering need for the community (5-ETS1-1); Expand their understanding of entertaining multiple solutions to a problem based on specific criteria and constraints (5-ETS1-2); and Plan and carry out fair tests to identify failure points in their model or prototype (5-ETS1-3). Investing in the hydraulics challenge, air powered car, electrical circuits challenge and zip- line racer STEM kits from Teacher Created Resources would give my students the needed materials to carry out and see these science standards in real life.
