The Systems Engineering Project – The LEGO Ski Resort
After a week's experience in engineering basics, 20 educators planned, designed, tested, built, modified, programmed, marketed, and operated this LEGO ski resort in less than four days time. It was a monumental effort, requiring communication between groups of "specialists" in their field of LEGO Engineering: Power & Programming, Structures & Mechanisms, and Systems & Architecture.
