Objective(s)
Students will:
- identify the
process by which an engineer solves a problem
- generate a hypothesis about an acid
mine drainage sample
- justify answers using a PowerPoint
presentation about the information they gathered
Time Required
1-2 class periods
Pre-Requisite Skills
Student will have to complete lessons 1-4.
21st Century Tools (Technology Tools)
- Computer
- Internet
- Presentation Software
Instructional Materials
Procedure
- Students will take the collected
information from their handout.
- They will use the
Engineer's Problem Solving Method to answer the
questions about their acid mine drainage area.
- Students will pay close attention to the
steps for generating a hypothesis and calculating cost.
- Students will develop a presentation that
outlines the method they choose to develop as a solution for
their mine.
Differentiated Instruction
Students with
special needs could give a written report about acid mine drainage, instead of
giving a presentation in front of the class. They could also
give the presentation in front of a smaller group of students or
teachers.
Author's Comments
Students will have difficulty
generating a hypothesis. They will need guidance in wording it
correctly.
