An engineer is a professional practitioner of engineering, concerned with applying scientific knowledge, mathematics and ingenuity
to develop solutions for technical problems. Engineers design
materials, structures and systems while considering the limitations
imposed by practicality, safety and cost. The word engineer is derived from the Latin roots ingeniare ("to contrive, devise") and ingenium ("cleverness") (Wikipedia)
National Engineering Week will soon be upon us. In honor of the wonderful engineers in our family, I thought I'd post some resources. My plan between now and the 17th is to come up with 3 lessons and actually do them with the kids. More to come!
