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 Joyce for details.
Registration is now open for the 20072008 Future Cities Competition. Register early to receive your free FCC Teacher/Mentor Handbook, SimCity 3000TM software, and tutorial C/D.
