STEM Paper Tower Project - 2 to 3 Day Detailed Lesson
Students are going to be tasked with creating a freestanding paper tower. Students may use any items/materials to create the tower, but the tower must be completely made of paper. The tower must be approximately 1 meter high and be able to hold a 2.5 lb. weight. Students will be given a budget for materials to complete this assignment.This project requires students to work together, research various structures, and create a tower than can withstand a specified weight.These plans include:- Detail

Advanced Modeling & Assembly w/ Autodesk Inventor (CAD/Engineering)
This 20-page project provides students the opportunity to model, assemble, and create an exploded view of a moderately complex multi-part assembly of a vice clamp using Autodesk Inventor. In order to successfully model each part, students will have to use more advanced commands such as loft and sweep, and become more familiar with establishing new planes. Some parts provide special instructions and give suggestions for how to model the given part. Alternatively, other basic parts provide no addi

SCIENCE: IMPULSE AND MOMENTUM
The momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and velocity.
In order to find the change the momentum of an object, we will need to calculate its impulse, which is the product of force and the time during which the force acts.
In this e-book, some vivid real life examples that tie the concept of impulse and momentum are given. These worked out physics problems will serve as a great guide for students and teachers. They are also intended to ignite the students towards adventures
