With an innovative approach that uses projects and student exploration as key
learning tools, Engineering Design: An Introduction offers an overview of the
basic engineering principles and concepts that shape today's modern world. These
concepts are presented in a flexible, two-part format. Part I describes the
process of engineering and technology product design, while Part II develops
specific skill sets needed to understand and participate in the process.
Opportunities to experiment and learn abound, with projects ranging from
technical drawing to designing electrical systems and more. With this emphasis
on project-based learning, the book is an ideal supplement to Project Lead the
Way's innovative series of project-based curricula
