Directions: In this Glider module, students will begin by having a short history of aviation. The design and construction of an airplane has changed the technology and will continue to change the evolution of aviation. Students will build an aircraft or glider, capable of flying the longest period. They will develop the simple skills of construction designing, and identifying vocabulary terms that relate to aviation.
The module contains several lessons and the assessment of the student's progress. Students will be asked to complete worksheets, take a photo of their project, and place their work in the Technology Engineering portfolio.
