Get Started Now
I know this sounds bold or even a little crazy, BUT using this step-by-step guide makes teaching an engineering science fair project a lot easier and more fun!
No more piling on a mountain of knowledge to eliminate frustration. . .
No more being responsible for all the teaching. . .
No more having a feeling of dread. . .
No more being overwhelmed . . .
Picture your students with a smile on their faces because you have shown them how to turn frustration or confusion into an opportunity!
This is what you will experience every single day when you follow the step-by-step guidelines in this eBook.
Sounds wonderful, doesn't it?
Too good to be true, right?
I am going to let you in on a little secret...
There is nothing that is magically going to take away all the pressure of teaching or a magic wand to wave to stop your students from feeling baffled when teaching the Engineering Design Process!
Fear, confusion and frustration are naturally occurring by-products when doing an engineering science fair project.
Engineering is different than other learning experience. And teaching the Engineer Design Process (EDP) using the inquiry-based lesson plans will relieve you from preparing and teaching piles of information that is required of a STEM curriculum. Instead, you will be a facilitator of learning. Your children will do the tough work. The book will show you how to wean your students from being dependent on you and gradually shift the work to your students. They will be given the opportunity to figure out how to think systematically, solve problems and find answers to their questions. To survive and thrive, your students will learn to develop a stick-to-it attitude.
Engineers love frustration and turn it into opportunity. Like real engineers, your students will find confusion a gift. They will learn how to turn despair into inspiration. You will see you students transform into creative, intuitive, people who will learn how to apply the EDP process to other school subjects and real life decisions.
Your students will work in teams to deal with engineering challenges and work out real world problems, just like engineers. Helping students work together as a productive team can be formidable! The eBook has team building tips to facilitate corporation.

The Engino® System
Building in 1 Direction: The rods can be connected in-line without the intermediate need of a connector, almost reducing to half the quantity of parts required to build models.
Building in 2 Direction: While the assembled rod looks uniform with nothing protruding, it may provide building directions vertically and sideways by simply snap fitting another rod to one of the bi-directional side cavities. This innovative design allows snap assembly on both sides simultaneously and greatly enhances the expandability of the System.
Building in 3 Directions: The System is capable of tackling with the same ease as all the other building directions. All directions of the 3D space are accessible by combining the rods with the various types of connectors.
Connecting in Fixed Angles: This system makes it possible to build complex models that require connections of 45°
Triangulating: Structures Right angle triangles can easily be created, ideally with side lengths of 15 units. The advantage of the Engino System is that the 2D structure may at any time be converted to 3D without needing any additional connectors. The TEE and ELBOW connectors provide a change in the plane of building without having any elements protruding.
The model may be modified at any time and there is no need to substitute the connectors with different ones. This not only reduces the number of different parts required to make a model but adds to the simplicity and functionality of the System.
Connecting Everywhere: Engino rods can behave as bricks that achieve various lengths. What makes this System different than other building toy systems is that any length is possible with the patent-pending extendable rods.
This amazing feature, when combined with the pivoted joints, can lead to the creation of any triangular shape and construction that were previously inconceivable. The extendable rod replaces the need of numerous other components and maximizes the building capabilities of the System.
Connecting in Every Angle: The potential of the System is unleashed by “cloning” the innovative geometries to pivoted joints. A specialty designed component is free to swing around the pivot part allowing any angle of the 3D space to be created:
Expandable at any time, in any direction, in any angle
Rods are also connectors
All parts snap-fit and stay together
Any length is possible
Built “big and easy”
Simple to use
Maximized modification capabilities
Low number of different parts
Fewer components can build more models
Creative and educational
Building Machines: The optimized design of Engino components consists of only 18 different types of multi-functional parts. Yet you can build simple and complex machines. Following the same design principles of the basic system, a range of different types of gears, pulleys, axles and accessories make it the ideal constructional toy for home and school.
If within 3 days of receiving your periodic table you find that there is a piece missing, let us know and we will send it to you free of charge.
