Rise to the Challenge Focus Workshop Series
Hurricane Heroes
Challenge: A category 4 hurricane has hit fictional Storm City, Massachusetts. The city faces several problems that can only be solved by your engineering team. Investigations include evacuating citizens, building emergency shelters, moving floodwaters, and designing alternative energy sources. The Challenge culminates in a redesign of the city’s resources to prevent future disaster. Along the way, you’ll engage with the science and engineering practices, inquiry-based learning, and the integration of STEM disciplines to inspire students in your own classroom. Join us to explore how to guide students through real-world problem-solving while addressing critical topics in disaster preparedness, sustainability, and resilience!
