STEM 4 Change: The Physics Behind the Strongest Structures at San Jose’s King Library.
Curious about how science and technology can change the world? Students ages 10-13 are welcome to join STEM 4 Change for fun, hands-on workshops where you’ll play games, solve challenges, and explore exciting topics like renewable energy and robotics—all while discovering how STEM can make a difference! STEM 4 Change is offering 3 workshops this April. Students interested in attending one or more of these workshops, should register for each workshop separately. On April 11 join us for “The Physics Behind the Strongest Structures:” Students will explore the fundamentals of structural engineering by designing and testing paper bridges to understand how shape and geometry influence strength and load distribution. Through a hands-on civil engineering-based challenge, they will discover how folds, triangles, and structural designs dramatically increase a bridge’s ability to support weight.
