Reminder: Cable Car Challenge 2014 April 8th, 2014
Teachers, the Middle School Challenge is just around the corner! Last term we learned some important lessons from our Mechanical Engineering Team that has hopefully helped your students construct a cable car. We hope that you pass these lessons along to your students so that we can have a successful Middle School Challenge. Here is a list of what you need to do before the challenge.
1) Make sure your students check out the videos we have been posting and do some research on cable car designs.
2) Make sure they have read and understand the requirements for the cable car. Feel free to post any questions.
3) Have your students make at least one club cable car to share at the Middle School Challenge. This car will need to be completed before the challenge as we will be doing a LEGO based industrial and manufacturing engineering challenge.
4) Come to the Middle School Challenge ready share and test your cable car! We look forward to seeing you at Eastern Oregon University on April 26th, or Portland Community College on May 3rd, or Southern Oregon University on May 10th.
Again if you have any questions please post them in the comments or contact us directly through email.
