E-MAP CHAMBER PROJECT Engineering Math Advancement Program SUMMER 2006 Mr. Mark Warner, Mercedes Dr. Karen Boykin, UA

Class Concept Experience the interrelationship between mathematics and engineering Math is the language of science Engineers apply scientific principles to real-world projects

Class Concept This concept is presented in four ways:

Class Concept This concept is presented in four ways: “hands-on” laboratory experiments in engineering disciplines;

Class Concept This concept is presented in four ways: “hands-on” laboratory experiments in engineering disciplines; interactions with practicing engineers;

Class Concept This concept is presented in four ways: “hands-on” laboratory experiments in engineering disciplines; interactions with practicing engineers; field trips to installations where engineers work;

Class Concept This concept is presented in four ways: “hands-on” laboratory experiments in engineering disciplines; interactions with practicing engineers; field trips to installations where engineers work; the application of some basic design and math principles learned in this Chamber Project

The Chamber Project Concept The Chamber Project introduces students to the societal role engineers can play in a community.

The Chamber Project Concept Students took elements of math and science from: Labs field trips interviews with practicing engineers higher level engineering students

The Chamber Project Concept Investigated engineering aspects of design for proposed water theme park in the Lake Nichol area.

The Chamber Project Concept Final Product: basic engineering aspects of the theme park design to include: How and where math and science from labs and field trips applied to the project. First: Used imagination to develop ideas, Second: Cost Park feasibility analysis. A virtual model of park layout.
