Learned how to use the laser cutter to cut cardboard today. I made a great visual for the Civil Engineering unit... used a contour map to make a 3 dimensional contour plot. Such a great use of technology! Excited to build in more student projects!
MESA Engrg students practicing for their "Pop up" Challenge. They get a box with miscellaneous items, a task that they have not seen, and a limited amount of time to design & execute a solution. Today they had to design a mechanical sorter. Great Engineering minds at work!
Our Engineering department now has a laser cutter!! Just hooked it up today and did a test print!! Let some more fun begin!!
My sophomore Engineering students designed some Excel spreadsheets to aid an engineer with resolving triangular forces and simplifying distributed loads in Coplanar force problems. These are some of the best. Amazing work!! So proud of their work!!
Eastern Tech students kicking off our MESA meetings by getting started working on their Wearable Technology, Expandable Structures, and National Engineering Design Competitions. Let the creative genius begin! I am really looking forward to seeing their creative design solutions.
My sophomore Engineering students hard at work designing and testing a Matlab program to solve simultaneous equations that are used in Coplanar Concurrent Statics problems. #MatlabRocks #engineeringatwork #GoTECH @CTE_BaltCoPS @AEEngEdu
Open House tonight at Eastern Tech!! So proud of my students with all the presentations, demos, and interactions with potential students. Such an amazing night!! Go TECH. Go ENGINEERING.
Just for fun... 3D printing, circuits, and art all at work for a cosplay prop... Doctor Strange's Eye of Agamotto...
Spirit week @ Eastern Tech and I wore the costume I made (all sewing & armor) for character day... Lady Loki! I will be wearing this for ComicCon this year..
It's spirit week at Eastern Tech this week. I am "twinning" with my friend and colleague @kburtonr
Today, juniors were working on their soil analysis project. They collected their own samples, dried them, and used sieves to separate soil particles by size. Tomorrow, they will do a wash analysis and some qualitative testing so we can give a specification for the sample.
Sophomores in Eastern Tech's Engineering class are learning about Inventor assembly tools while designing their own chairs with innovative features! I love the creativity!!
Went in to school today to continue my jumpstart on getting my room ready...
Today, I finished the hallway bulletin board for Engineering. I have showcased the design of my MESA team that won them 2nd place at Nationals! Go TECH!!
