A World In Motion (AWIM)

A World In Motion® brings math and science principles to life. Our programs are exciting and interactive and make learning fun. Laws of physics, motion, flight and electronics are learned and then demonstrated as students build cars, skimmers and gliders and conduct experiments with electricity and electronics.

The program consists of four hands-on physical science curricula

Challenge 1 Grades 4, 5 and 6 Skimmer, Jet Toy
Challenge 2 Grade 7 Motorized Toy
Challenge 3 Grade 8 Glider
Challenge 4 Grades 4-10 Electricity and Electronics
Challenge 5  Grades -
Field testing/joint launching in Montana - date to be announced

Students, teachers and volunteer engineers and scientists work together to make math and science an interactive adventure and to bring real-world experiences into the classroom.

A World In Motion® is brought to you by SAE International and is funded through the SAE Foundation
