Description:

This large scale project asks students to investigate and design the structure and systems for a replicable, zero-energy tiny home. As they consider the range of tiny house models currently being built, students learn about the construction materials, structural elements, and generation systems that are the most energy efficient.

We'll use a variety of mediums to help us through the engineering design process, including floorplans, manipulatives such as Lego and cardboard, and Computer Aided Design (CAD) to help us visualize the space to make sure it meets all of our needs!
