Explore Forces and Energy With PBS's Design Squad Nation

摘要

Zoom them across the floor. Race 'em. Use them to play games. The Balloon Car, Robo Wheel, and Rubber Band Car activities from Design Squad™ Nation challenge kids to make vehicles and then use the design process to maximize their performance. Bring the engineering concepts to life with resources from Design Squad Nation's online educator's library. There are animations explaining force, torque, friction, and potential energy, TV episodes about kids making motorized dragsters and off-road go-karts, and video profiles of a mechanical engineer who designs race cars and twin teenaged boys who race go-karts.
