Student Project Work Showcase
Designing for Wildlife Engineering Project at Rockport Middle School:
A month long project for engineering solutions to problems faced by wildlife on Cape Ann. Students were asked to choose a target species, and then to plan, sketch, and engineer a model of a structure they would like to install to help wildlife. They also selected specific locations where the full scale solutions would be most useful.
