TeacherGeek Electromagnetic Crane Kit

The TeacherGeek Electromagnetic Crane Kit offers the classic activity of designing a crane but with a "green" twist - tailor the design to solve recycling and waste disposal issues. Students build and experiment with an electromagnet, adding a crane mechanism for control. They innovate by evolving their creations through the engineering and design process, using TeacherGeek components, recycling bin materials (and possibly 3-D printed elements), and much more. Compete against other cranes in exciting, diverse challenges, including a multi-player board game. Create a tournament or simply watch as your classroom is engaged in exploring exciting STEM activities. Learn about electromagnetism, magnetic fields, and simple machines in this fun activity. Build once, tinker forever.
