The Infinity Project provides the complete solution for implementing engineering into the classroom. Educators across the country are using this proven high-tech curriculum to better prepare students in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
Students stay focused on the math and science concepts behind technologies they enjoy. They apply key concepts through hands-on engineering design projects such as building a speaker, digital music player, robot, rocket or prosthetic implant.
Experience in classrooms all across the United States shows that Infinity keeps students challenged, learning and exploring from start to finish.
The Infinity Project curriculum makes it all easy.
The Infinity Project provides educators with flexible, rigorous, relevant curriculum that may be incorporated into existing STEM classes or taught as a standalone course.
Developed by an expert team including leaders in engineering education, the technology industry, government and - most importantly - high school teachers, the Infinity curriculum helps students quickly understand how the concepts they've learned in math and science apply to real-life challenges in the world around them.
The curriculum isn't just theoretical. It's not just solving problems on the blackboard. Students explore engineering through a variety of modern technologies. Students innovate, create, design, experiment and learn all along the way.
The Infinity Project offers curricula specifically designed for grades 6 – 12 and early college students. Each program includes materials that make it easy for instructors to implement the program into their classroom. Materials are provided during professional development and include the following:
Intermediate School
Engineering for Today’s Intermediate School provides the complete solution for introducing STEM into the classroom. Designed for students in 6th – 9th grade, this program provides 39 weeks of curriculum that reinforces math and science through electrical, mechanical, civil, environmental, and biomedical engineering. Activities are centered on twelve modules that may be grouped together and offered as a standalone course or incorporated into existing math, science, or technology classes. Students stay engaged as they learn how key concepts apply to such topics as:
High School and Early College
Engineering Design is appropriate for high school students that have completed Algebra II and at least one science course or early college students. The program provides 57 weeks of curriculum focused on the disciplines of electrical, mechanical, biomedical, and environmental engineering. Activities are centered on four modules containing several hands-on engineering design projects that help students think and act like real engineers. Modules may be grouped together and taught as a standalone course or incorporated into existing STEM classes. Students are exposed to new and relevant applications of math, science, and technology through the following modules:
-
The Human Machine – links biology, physics, chemistry, and math together to investigate and improve the human condition.
The Infinity Project is among the first engineering education programs in the nation to receive approval by a major state education agency. The Texas Education Agency has approved the Infinity Engineering Curriculum as a math, science, or career and technology elective for students in grades 10-12.
