Brighton & Hove Motor Show.
Wavey Dynamics kicked off our community outreach program with an exhibition at Brighton & Hove’s first annual Motor Show in June 2017.
3 educational games were developed in-house in order to teach young children some basic engineering fundamentals. The principles covered were:
1. Newtons 3rd Law of Motion, aerodynamics and gravity:
-
Demonstrated using air powered rockets.
2. Kinetic Energy, Renewable sources of energy (wind power), aerodynamics:
-
Demonstrated using miniature wind powered cars.
3. Structural Mechanics:
-
Demonstrated using a selection of load bearing shapes.
Children were invited to participate in the games and certificates of participation were handed out as a form of recognition and encouragement.
The event was very well received and much positive feedback was given to the organisers. We are invited back in 2018.
