Catch of the Day - Engineering Interact - 1/20/2011

Engineering Interact is a new free educational resource for primary school children ages 9 to 11, providing fully interactive, engaging game environments and high-quality learning material.

The goal of Engineering Interact is to teach children about science in a fun and interesting way, and promote the study of engineering. Information about real-world applications and cutting edge research helps motivate kids and introduces them to the subject of engineering.

Engineering Interact covers all of the Physical Processes area of the National Curriculum for England. The material is presented in a game format. These modules are stand-alone and can also be used without the game aspect. Information about engineering applications is then presented by extending the science the children have just learned.

Engineering Interact was created by the University of Cambridge Department of Engineering, with a grant from the HEFCE Aspirations Fund and the University of Cambridge Active Community fund.
