Exploring the Engineering Design Process through the Egg Drop
Presenters Name Short bio/ Accomplishments Title
Egg Drop Your challenge is to design, build, and test a container to protect an egg when dropped from a great height.
Only drop your eggs in the drop zone, and with an instructor's approval. Don't walk through the drop zone. If you get egg on your hands, wash them immediately.
Instructions Start thinking about what kinds of materials and designs will protect your egg from the fall. Then, get building! After you've tested your design, re-design it to be more effective.
Discussion Did your crash-test egg survive the fall? Why do you think that is? What was the strongest part of your design? What was the weakest part of your design? What would you do differently if you built a prototype again?
