Description
The Polydron Engineer Class Set is a cutting-edge Design and Technology product that introduces students to engineering principles and demonstrates the workings of simple machines. With 250 pieces and various components, this set provides a comprehensive toolkit for hands-on learning and exploration.
The Polydron Engineer Class Set includes excellent work cards, offering step-by-step instructions and guidance to enhance the building process. These work cards ensure that students can quickly and efficiently construct the 14 different models included in the set. Students will have the opportunity to build models such as a Cable Car, Gear Toy, Chairspinner, Crane, V8 Engine, and Clock, among others. With the ability to create 3 to 4 models simultaneously, students can collaborate and engage in practical problem-solving while constructing these recognizable mechanical creations.
This set introduces the latest innovations in engineering, incorporating cams and linkages to inspire future engineers. These components allow students to explore and understand the mechanics behind various machines, giving them a hands-on experience of how gears and mechanisms work. The gears included in the Polydron Engineer Class Set are designed with simple ratios (8, 16, and 24 teeth), allowing for the invention of countless other models and encouraging creativity and experimentation.
In addition to the comprehensive work cards, the Polydron Engineer Class Set provides clear links between mathematics and engineering. Students can see and apply mathematical concepts, such as ratios and mechanical principles, in a practical and tangible way. This integration fosters a deeper understanding of STEM subjects and encourages interdisciplinary thinking.
The Polydron Engineer Class Set is fully interactive with Polydron Original and Frameworks pieces, seamlessly integrating with existing classroom stocks. This compatibility allows for limitless possibilities and expands the potential of the already versatile Polydron system.
This set has been fully tested by schools and experts to ensure its quality, durability, and educational value. The Polydron Engineer Class Set is a unique and essential resource for any design and technology class, providing hands-on learning experiences and inspiring the engineers of tomorrow.
Enhance your classroom's design and technology curriculum with the Polydron Engineer Class Set. Watch as students engage in critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity while exploring the world of engineering. This innovative set sparks curiosity and inspiration, laying the foundation for future engineers and innovators.
