Share Your Work

For classroom teachers, home-schoolers, out-of-school programs, informal educators – anyone teaching engineering to kids.

From How to Teach Kids Engineering – 5 Keys to Success 5/5 republished with permission…

This is the fifth and final “key” from the original post. Hope that you get some ideas and inspiration for teaching kids engineering.

5. Share Your Work

After you complete a project, share it. This gives the kids a chance to be proud of their work and their work can be instructional and inspirational to others. Great engineering comes from great collaboration.

Our kids have really enjoyed sharing our work on Youtube. Scratch is a great programming site where you can share your projects and allow others to ‘remix’ your code to build new projects based on your initial creation. A great idea becomes even greater when you share it – you begin to get feedback and suggestions and most of all encouragement.

Check out the Teach Kids Engineering channel on Youtube.

An engineering education can prepare your kids for an exciting and fulfilling career, or it can provide them with key knowledge and problem solving skills to empower them in whatever they do. The key is to make it fun as you learn and grow with them!
