Engineering Explained is a brand new project within science made simple that started in August of 2007. There's going to be a whole load of new engineering shows coming up so watch this space! As well as this, we will be hosting MadLab Cymru! These are sessions in the form of electronic workshops in schools and other venues across the UK. We also want to see how student's attitudes toward engineering changes over time, so we’re going to look into forms of evaluating people's opinions about engineering and hopefully make everyone more aware of what engineering is all about, therefore we will be incorporating an electronic voting system into some of our shows. Lastly, we’re planning to implement an Engineering Communicator Development Scheme, in which we train engineers to communicate subjects within their field to non-engineers.
After a show of "Cradle to Grave" in Hurst Community College lately, talking about Cryonics and the premise of living forever, a student asked "what would happen to your hair if you were frozen to -200 degrees centigrade? Engineering Explained made this video in response, click the picture to view.
Engineering Explained Project to write new show for Bloodhound Supersonic Car! - Engineering Explained are writing an engineering show all about the new 1000mph cabloodhound_car_orig
r, Bloodhound. Richard Noble, the driving force behind British World Land Speed racing
for over 25 years, says: "This is an
iconic engineering and education adventure for the 21st century that is
pushing technology to its limit. We aim to inspire the next generation
of engineers and scientists by designing and building our incredible
car capable of 1000 mph!". Teachers can register schools here, to join the BLOODHOUND Education programme and receive lesson ideas,
posters...and an amazing experience that children will never forget!
