DESCRIPTION

This national program introduces students to engineering with the popular Sim City software. Students design future cities with simulation software, build scale models, write essays and give oral reports on their city's design. Students better understand practical applications of math, science, social studies and computer learning as they plan their own cities. Schools need 2 teachers for this competition, a teacher, and an engineer mentor. If you need suggestions on how to find an engineer, contact Bridget for details.

Registration is now open for the 2008–2009 Future Cities Competition. There is a Teacher and Mentor Orientation, 3:30–5:30 pm, on October 7, 2008.
