Description
Students will take on the role of product designers in STIIX-Ville, where the local toy store is seeking an exciting, educational new gadget to hit their shelves. Their challenge: to design and build a fully functioning fidget spinner that spins smoothly around a central bearing.⭕
By experimenting with balance, symmetry, weight distribution, and rotational inertia, students will explore the physics behind motion and friction while aiming to create a toy that’s both fun and marketable.😎
As an extension, students may explore an optional Augmented Reality experience through the STIIX-Ville app, where they can interact with and reflect on careers related to project.🏙️
