CreateKit Assistive Device Kit
Aspiring engineers collaborate to create DIY adaptive equipment to make everyday tasks accessible for an individual with a condition or injury impacting motor function.
These intriguing kids' engineering kits inspire creativity as well as empathy as students design and build assistive devices to help those with differences in motor abilities complete tasks such as putting on socks, typing an email, or opening a door. With a variety of supplies like hydraulic kits, cardboard, and glue, students brainstorm to determine which materials best suit the purpose of their device.
This hands-on, open-ended invention kit gives students a glimpse of potential career paths in medical or engineering industries. Students gain understanding and awareness as they learn more about common injuries, diagnoses, and conditions and how they impact an individual's ability to complete daily activities. Ideal for up to 24 students working in small groups. Recommended for Upper Elementary and up.
The included lesson direction details setup instructions, activities by grade level, learning objectives, and teaching suggestions to expand lessons.
