In this course, we will learn about simple machines: levers, pulleys, wheels and axles, inclined planes, wedges, and screws. We will study their origins, usefulness, and relationships to other machines. We will have hands-on opportunities with simple machines, draw pictures, and make our own models. While learning that gadgets are based upon the principles of simple machines, we will try to stump one another with unusual gadgets. We will learn about Ruben Lucius “Rube” Goldberg and his famous gadget cartoon pictures. As homework each of us will design and build a simple working model of his or her own Rube Goldberg-inspired gadget. After working a little at home every day in order to plan, assemble, and complete our final course projects by the last day, we will then present them for our Open House.
