We have learnt about Science and Technology. Today we are going to brainstorm: Engineering What is Engineering: -Building of various things - like building, roads, vehicles and technology and more .. giving ideas -Making air craft and rockets Where did the idea to make a aeroplane come from? -From a bird Where did the idea to make a submarine come from ? -From a fish Sonar is the device that helps to know how deep is the ocean is. -dolphins already have the sonar to know the depth Compass shows us direction. How do the birds know the direction on where to fly? -The birds have the compass in their beak.. that is how they find direction. From where die we get the idea for electricity? -from lightning All engineering good ideas come from nature, animals, environment So for engineering anything .. where do you start? In the nature... Key Engineering Concept :

1. Creation or building
2. Maintenance
3. Change

Engineering is about using what is in nature

vs recreating and building from scratch.

This session had to end abruptly...
