LEVEE STEM PROJECT

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Hope Rising STEM Challenge has been designed to have students utilize recycled materials and items that could be found within the school community. Please refer to the STEM Challenge Video Guide for additional guidance.

Before beginning any designs, it is important that the testing area is properly set up. Follow these steps before creating your design solution so brainstorming will be easier.

1. Place your testing tray in a clean area. The testing tray represents your environment / urban area / city where the environmental disaster has occurred .

2. Place a completely filled 16.9oz water bottle in the testing tray. This water bottle represents a reservoir that is already filled to capacity.

3. The next step is to overflow the reservoir. We do this by filling the empty water bottle with water and pouring it into the already filled reservoir bottle. At this point the water will flood out of the reservoir and enter the testing tray. You will REPEAT the procedure of pouring the bottle of water into the already filled reservoir 6 more times.

The water in the tray is considered the flood water. Flood water can be the result of a hurricane, tropical storm, or excessive rain poured all over the landscape. In our STEM Challenge, the flooding is due to a reservoir that is filled to capacity and is now overflowing into the surrounding area.

Among the most critical academic disciplines for success in a 21st century workforce are those involving Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM). Our ultimate goal is to enable Jersey City Public School students to compete on a global scale with other emerging economies through the development and expansion of their STEM related skills and abilities.

The STEM Design Challenge

Now that you have the flooded/hurricane damaged environment established, your team's challenge is to protect a building/structure in the environment. The building/structure will be represented by a cardboard tube. This tube can represent the interior of a home, a school, the interior of a business, restaurant, or whatever structure you choose.

To be successful in the Hope Rising STEM Design Challenge, the tube must remain as dry as possible.

Design Solution Building Rules:

1. You can use any materials you find in your school as long as they are recyclable.

2. No glass may be used.

3. The total height of your design solution cannot exceed 1in. (2.5 centimeters).

4. The width and length of your design solution cannot exceed the width and length of the testing tray.

5. The reservoir must stay inside of the testing tray.

6. You must include a space in your design solution for the cardboard tube (building/structure).

7. Only tape may be used to adhere objects/items together.

Design Solution Testing Procedure:

1. After your testing area is set up, place your design solution inside of the tray along with the cardboard tube.

2. Place a small plastic bag with 50 pennies inside of the cardboard tube.

3. Start a timer for 5 minutes. During this time no one is allowed to touch the design solution or the testing tray.

4. Once the 5 minutes is over, remove the cardboard tube from the design solution.

5. Measure the height of the water saturation on the tube using millimeters.

6. Record your findings.

7. Dry off your structure.

8. Review your results, refine your design, and repeat the testing procedure until your team finds an ideal solution.

Design Solution Testing Procedure:

Keep good records of the results of each design solution. This could include: sketches, pictures, video, data charts/tables, graphs, etc,.

Use the engineering design process to accurately test your design solutions.

Use research of current flood/disaster protection technology to help with your design ideas.

Remember to change only one part of your design solution at a time to see which variables will produce the best results.
