The Tufts Engineering the Next Steps (TENS) GK-12 project
aims to work with K-12 teachers to help them infuse engineering concepts
and activities into their lessons. The project, funded by the National Science
Foundation, pairs graduate and undergraduate engineering and computer science
fellows with school teachers. TENS consists of 4 principal and overlapping
components: the preparation and education of fellows, professional development
of teachers, school and classroom-based efforts, and curriculum enhancement.

Tufts University Bridge Library |
|
The mission of this program is to develop buildable model bridges of different structural types. The models are used for outreach in Massachusetts classrooms, grades 1-6. The working models demonstrate different types of bridge design, architecture, and construction methods as they are assembled by grade school students in a way that simulates the actual construction process. This library of bridge models will be used to foster outreach to schools, interest in K-12 education by current college students, and awareness of architecture and design in our communities.
