Exploring the Engineering Design Process: Duct Tape Wallets
by Julie Gentry
In this hands-on lesson, students will learn about the Engineering Design Process and its uses and benefits. The students will then apply what they have learned to the construction of a duct tape wallet for a classmate (“customer”). The slide deck walks you through everything that you need to know, and the worksheet walks the student through the process!
