Inspired by Industry RAF

Inspired by Industry RAF, Inspired by Industry: RAF This context allows students to explore temporary shelter design for various situations, from humanitarian aid to pop-up market stalls and pet carriers. The project encourages material exploration, testing for properties like insulation and waterproofing, and considering collapsible structures and mechanical systems. Students can create physical or CAD prototypes, with testing methods ranging from virtual FEA analysis to hands-on team challenges like building and water-testing shelters. The project supports individual and group work, fostering problem-solving and engineering skills...

Inspired by Industry Pure Electric

Inspired by Industry Pure Electric, Inspired by Industry: Pure Electric Students tackle the design of cargo-carrying systems for bikes, scooters, and e-scooters. This project encourages practical prototyping, precise measuring, and material experimentation, including multi-material solutions using fabrics and polymers. From creating holders for tools and water bottles to waterproof carriers, students can test their designs in class and refine them conceptually with CAD software. Log in or join the Association and add this to your basket. This classroom resource is free so there will...

How to use the mapPrint out the map and put it in a prominent place where students can pause

Inspired by Industry Yoto

Inspired by Industry Yoto, Inspired by Industry: Yoto This context has been put together to allow for a range of opportunities for students to explore the design and creation of toys to help children learn. While the company specialise in screen free audio players, the context is adaptable to other types or learning toy. This context provides opportunities to explore woods and polymers as well as prototyping materials such as card and expanded foam. This context could also encourage the exploration of simple electronics and/or...

Inspired by Industry PTC Onshape

Inspired by Industry PTC Onshape, Inspired by Industry: PTC Onshape This context has been created to allow for a range of opportunities for students to explore user centred design and innovation through the development of a robot that can improve the quality of life. The prototype outcome(s) will need to be realised in a form that can be tested and evaluated. This might simple be a mock-up with exposed parts, wires etc. to test functionality, or it could be that the prototype resembles a more commercial ‘finished’ outcome....

Inspired by Industry JCB

Inspired by Industry JCB, Inspired by Industry: JCB This context has been put together to allow for a range of opportunities for students to explore the causes and effects of pollution in the environment and to design solutions to combat pollution. The context is adaptable to a wide range of applications such as waste collection, management and disposal. Some outcomes are likely to be conceptual and may not be fully working. For example, a waste compactor may focus on the mechanical operation...

Making frames for motorised projects

Making frames for motorised projects, Making frames for motorised projectsAge 9-11 years First published 2014 This Year 5 or 6 PowerPoint presentation, from material kindly provided by Hampshire County Council, includes a step-by-step guide through making a framework to house a motor that can be adapted for a range of uses. Once children have been successfully led through the design and manufacture of the unit they are then well placed to incorporate it into any moving machine, including fairground rides or moving vehicles. Successful electrical and computer control activities can be...
