What are the challenges for engineers today?
How can new materials and technoligies help us to solve problems?
Why is sustainability so important?
Can we change the world for the better through Science, Math and Engineering in time to save it and if so, How?
C understand how engineering contributes to a sustainable future.
Working from the technical drawing below you are to mark out then cut and shape the hull of the boat design using the tools shown.
1: Mark a centre line and both construction lines, mark points on the edges.
2: Use construction line marks and points to draw in a semetrical edge for the boat edges.
Watch the first 1.45 minutes of the video below to find out how to use a compas and pencil to draw a scribe line.
Task 1: In pairs or a small group write a list of evaluation points you could use to assess your project outcome (boat project). E.g. Aesthetics, Use of materials, Finish, Accuracy etc.
Task 2: In your group / pair decide on the evaluation points you will use, discard the rest.
Write these out in a grid with a rating from 0 - 5
e.g.
Aesthetics 0 1 2 3 4 5
Finish 0 1 2 3 4 5
