Students are provided with an introduction to above-ground storage tanks, specifically how and why they are used in the Houston Ship Channel. The introduction includes many photographic examples of petrochemical tank failures during major storms and describes the consequences in environmental pollution and costs to disrupted businesses and lives, as well as the lack of safety codes and provisions to better secure the tanks in coastal regions regularly visited by hurricanes. Students learn how the concepts of Archimedes' principle and Pascal's law act out in the form of the uplifting and buckling seen in the damaged and destroyed tanks, which sets the stage for the real-world engineering challenge presented in the associated activity to design new and/or improved storage tanks that can survive storm conditions.

Throughout this lesson, the students will learn how to correctly take measurements to create a fitted garment. Students will begin with brainstorming measuring tools. Next, they will discuss fabric sizing as a class. Students will learn about the history of measurements and why it is important to take measurements. Individuals will team up in pairs to practice taking measurement. Finally, students will apply the measurements by comparing and contrasting them with a home-sew pattern. This lesson could be used before a student begins creating a garment for themselves, especially in Intro to Design or an Apparel Production & Construction course.

This lesson explores the similarities between how a human being moves/walks and how a robot moves. This allows students to see the human body as a system, i.e., from the perspective of an engineer. It shows how movement results from (i) decision making, i.e., deciding to walk and move, and (ii) implementing the decision by conveying the decision to the muscle (human) or motor (robot).
