Lego drives science learning
Belt transmission, vibration and metal fatigue are terms often associated with a first-year engineering degree, but Bungaree Primary School and Hillman Primary School students put these words into action when engineering experts E2 Young Engineers Perth visited the schools last month.
Years 4 to 6 students participated in a Lego engineering program on Wednesday, November 28 making functional motorised Lego prototypes of race cars, jelly blenders, drills and compactors. Head Lego engineer Chee Wong said the program provided hands-on STEM learning by educating children using a favourite childhood toy.
