Unit Summary

Water Transport System

Danielle Freiermuth, Tucker Jensen and Lynda Yang Gungsing

Process and Introduction of Our Project

Unit Implementation:

Process

Introduction

This went really well:

Here's what happened:

  • We knew we wanted an engaging and meaningful project.
  • Standard 4.1.3.1 "Water"
  • Humans improve their existence by interacting with and influencing Earth's systems.
  • Tucker was in the process of planning a trip to Honduras.
  • Exciting way to model our project after a real problem
  • Materials
  • Students had to "buy" the materials using Lempira
  • Scaffolding
  • Scenario
  • "Edgar is a fifteen year old boy living in Honduras, a small country in Central America. Every day, his family has to walk a long way just to get clean water, just like the water that comes out of our faucets. How can we help Edgar get clean water efficiently?"
  • Edgar recurred throughout the week.
  • Student Engagement
  • Application of students' background knowledge
  • Designing Solutions
  • Using Engineering Design
  • Evaluating Solutions

Materials and Pricing

Tubing- 20 Lempiras/6 inches

Straws- 10 Lempiras/1

Duct Tape- 20 Lempiras/6 inches

Small Plastic Cup- 40 Lempiras

Styrofoam Cup- 50 Lempiras

This is what we would do differently:

  • Have clear evaluation criteria
  • Connection between technology and handout
  • Explain good notes early on
  • Expectations and procedures clearly explained
  • Bring economics into the unit
