ETS1.A Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems
ETS1.B Develop Possible Solutions
ETS1.C Optimizing the Design Solution
In the Science of Thermal Runaway pathway, students explore hazards of lithium-ion battery-powered devices and ask questions to make ongoing connections to the problem definition to design a battery enclosure. After the pathway, students have the opportunity to complete an engineering design challenge to design, test and optimize a battery enclosure for a lithium-ion battery-powered device.
