Synopsis

This experiment-based course uses LEGO® bricks to teach physics and engineering principles. Experiments using models constructed of LEGO bricks are used to help solidify understanding of concepts presented in the text. Discussion is presented in an engaging and fun manner, designed for 10 years old through high school. Learn the science of mechanics, movement, and energy, while engineering applies scientific principles to make useful tools. This workbook engages your brain with physics fundamentals. Then let your creative side participate, learning how this knowledge is used by engineers. LEGO building bricks are the perfect medium to demonstrate the newly learned physics principles by assembling custom machines that actually work. Constructing and experimenting with these models helps to solidify the concepts developed in each chapter—and you get to "play" with LEGO bricks while you’re learning. Physics and engineering have never been so much fun! A detailed list of what LEGO bricks you will need is included. If you’re missing any in your own collection, directions for finding them easily are provided. Since this is an Edible Knowledge® series course, it contains a fun and interesting food science experiment as well! Let the author’s love and enthusiasm for Food Science and LEGO® bricks excite your imagination. Beakers & Bricks knows you will enjoy this approach to learning about physics and engineering!
