Post-Hurricane Power Line Inspections

Students will solve real-world problems involving elapsed time to develop a plan for drone inspectors to survey power lines after a hurricane.

This is an open-ended engineering design lesson where students will develop a model to help them solve a problem. There are no “right” answers as the lesson is focused on the process of developing a solution and the skills and reasoning behind the process. Students should be given the freedom to interpret the problem and parameters in unique ways to pursue their own lines of thinking in producing a solution.
