Unit Overview
Sometimes animals need our help! Just like humans, other animals can regain the function of a missing limb with the aid of a prosthetic device. Students participating in this unit will become biomechanical engineers as they use the Engineering Design Process to design prosthetic devices for a variety of animals.
Core Program Unit Components
We recommend one Educator Guide per teacher and one Materials Kit per 24 learners. Together, these components create a high-quality, hands-on STEM learning experience.
Engineering Prosthetic Tails Educator Guide is unavailable. Contact us at 617-589-0230 or yes@mos.org with questions.
