The company mission is to “develop toys thatencourage Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in children.” The company visionis to “enable children of all ages, genders, ethnicities, and abilities to engage in STEM ininnovative and fun ways.” Each class is assigned a toy they must build, which meets specificcriteria. These toys are fairly simple, like mouse trap cars, rock skippers, trebuchets, pressurerockets, or hot air balloons. The differences between these projects, and something typical HighSchool students may do, are the specific criteria students must meet, and the engineeringprocesses they
