Educating young students in the engineering field helps to increase their ability to analyze problems and develop critical skills early in life. The goal of this project is to utilize Tufts University’s Novel Engineering Program in the first grade classrooms at John F. Kennedy Elementary School in Jamaica Plain in order to engage students in STEM programs at an early age. We will aim to break down barriers within the classroom and have useful tools that the teachers can use in the future for the students.
