CEEO has ongoing relationships with schools and educators locally. Through these collaborations CEEO strives to help the other organizations meet their goals while providing students with quality, research-based engineering activities.
In the “Reservoir Rescue” unit, 5h grade students explore key concepts of earth science and engineering in the context of a polluted, reservoir-feeding waterway in their local community.
In the “Safer Stopover Sites for Migratory Birds” unit students explore core ideas of physical science, life science and engineering in the context of mitigating light and sound pollution from the highway in their local community.
In the “Motion and Design of Accessible Playgrounds” unit is part of the larger unit, 3rd grade students will explore core ideas of balanced and unbalanced forces, changes in motion, and interactions between magnets.
Students engage in both science inquiry and engineering design as they gain understanding of a specific problem, working through a series of lessaon, and work toward a design challenge that where they plan and build solutions to improve a subway vehicle.
In the “Displaced Animal Rescue” unit, 3rd grade students explore core ideas about animals and their environments, particularly how changes to habitat affect the ability of animals to survive.
In the “Make Way for Trains” unit (MWT), students explore key concepts of geotechnical engineering in the context of a train track expansion for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority
