Y8 Engineering Workshop
Barnwood Park Year 8 students have taken part in 2-hour immersive workshop designed to unlock their inner engineer as they explore alternative energy sources. The students now know how energy is transferred using different experimental models and understand a range of sustainable energy sources and the role engineers play in green energy / sustainable technologies.
Through participation in the workshop the students have learned to understand what engineers do and how they use the engineering design process, how their own interests and skills can lead to a career in engineering.
