To find the answers to these questions about the natural world, developing engineers use their own and other engineers' observations and experiments, as well as mathematical and engineering tools such as Ansys. Engineering is the application of science, mathematics, and technology to the development of new tools and methods for solving societal problems. Incorporating engineering practises into the science classroom helps students get a more thorough understanding of, and facility with, the methods at the foundation of both disciplines.
Both the enquiry cycle and the engineering design process use a method of problem solving and testing to arrive at a result. However, in the engineering and design process, students employ preexisting scientific knowledge to solve an issue, as opposed to asking a question and using the scientific method to answer it, as in the inquiry cycle. Both require investigation and experimentation, but engineers aim to address societal issues with their work, and there are often more than one way to do so.
Even if they don't have a firm grasp on what makes a good project or any background in facilitating project-based learning, we inspire, motive and teach and then apply transferable skills and to have a gut feeling that projects are valuable.
Here are some of the BTEC Extended Diploma (RQF) 1 year projects, our students have developed ;
......wait til June 2023 we can showcase our students projects and provide - more details !
