The Product

edited by: Carla C. Johnson, Janet B. Walton, and Erin Peters-Burton

This lesson introduces the module and the Product Design Challenge. It engages students with packaging by asking them to respond to a display of products and consider the appeal of the packaging to buyers. It also provides students with the opportunity to learn about the engineering design process (EDP), engineer solutions to real problems, and use that knowledge to think about social issues. We recommend reading Chapter 3, which is included in this book selection and provides a module overview and summary. A materials list, teacher background information, safety notes, standards, assessment, Internet resources, and references are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, About the Editors and Authors, Acknowledgments, Appendix, and Index.
