7. Rube Goldberg Students create an original machine / contraption based on the Pulitzer Prize winning artist, Rube Goldberg. His drawings of machines are an inspiration to aspiring engineers, scientists, and artists around the world. It is a way to engage students in critical thinking and problem- solving in a non-traditional learning environment, and have fun in the process. The process of building and seeing success empowers students through experiential project-based learning that develops essential skills for thriving in a global society.
