Description
In this mission, students examine how prosthetic technology positively affects the health and systems of the human body by learning about the various functions, the evolution over time, and the manufacturing process of prostheses. In their final task, students follow the engineering design process to make a prototype.
Learning goals
- I examine how prosthetic technology positively affects the health and systems of the human body.
- I use the engineering design process to design the prototype of a prosthesis to meet a need.
