Guide your students through the fascinating world of engineering, and how to draw inspiration from Natures genius to create, make, and innovate a better humanbuilt world.Studded with more than 150 illustrations of natural phenomena and engineering concepts, this fascinating and practical book clearly demonstrates how engineering design is broadly relevant for all students, not just those who may become scientists or engineers. Mr. Stier describes clever, engaging activities for students at every grade level to grasp engineering concepts by exploring the everyday design genius of the natural world around us. Students will love learning about structural engineering while standing on eggs; investigating concepts in sustainable design by manufacturing cement out of car exhaust; and coming to understand how ant behavior has revolutionized the way computer programs, robots, movies, and video games are designed today. You will come away with an understanding of engineering and Nature unlike any youve had before, while taking your ability to engage students to a whole new level.Engineering Education for the Next Generation is a wonderful introduction to the topic for any teacher who wants to understand more about engineering design in particular, its relation to the larger subjects of STEM/STEAM, and how to engage students from all backgrounds in a way that meaningfully transforms their outlook on the world and their own creativity in a lifelong way. Fun to read, comprehensive exploration of cuttingedge approaches to K12 engineering education Detailed descriptions and explanations to help teachers create activities and lessons An emphasis on engaging students with broad and diverse interests and backgrounds Insights from a leading, awardwinning K12 engineering curriculum that has reached thousands of teachers and students in the U.S. and beyond Additional support website (www.LearningWithNature.org) providing more background, videos, curricula, slide decks, and other supplemental materials 150 photographs
