In this project the middle school students will be using the FlashForge 3D printer and accompanying filament to design crash helmets. This project uses the applied physics concepts consisting of linear kinematics, Newton’s Laws, impulse, and elastic/inelastic collisions, teaching the core areas of each concept. These concepts are best learned in a hands on manner. Additionally, students utilize empathizing, defining, ideating, prototyping, testing and working collaboratively, in order to produce crash helmets for the purpose of protecting users from traumatic brain injury, using an egg to simulate a human head
