Rube Goldberg STRUCTURED STEM PROJECT with ASSESSMENT Rubrics Energy Transfer
Add structure and assessment to your fun Rube Goldberg, critical thinking engineering project during a forces/motion and simple machines unit discussing the change in kinetic energy as it is transferred from one object to another. Low prep and super fun end of year project based learning! During all of the designing excitement it can be easy for the students to lose their focus so I have created a more structured approach to the engineering process. The students start out with a brainstorming s
