Discover Engineering in Central Texas

Design Squad is a new PBS television show, outreach campaign, and Web site, premiering during EWeek 2007. Part reality competition, all engineering, and major fun, Design Squad features two teams of real high school kids who use their problem-solving skills to design, construct, and test engineering projects such as a machine that automatically makes pancakes, or motorizing a red wagon that can reach speeds up to 20mph. This material was presented at the initial training session. Additional information is contained in this Powerpoint presentation.
