Insulin Storage and Shipping Container Engineering Design Challenge

Up your students’ knowledge and skills with this Design Challenge. Filled to the brim with fun, easy-to-use resources, this box has everything students need to engage, create, and investigate. Insulin Storage and Shipping Container Design Challenge OverviewStudents design, construct and test a container for storing and shipping insulin that keeps 6 or more vials of insulin between 10 degrees C and 35 degrees C for at least 24 hours regardless of the outside temperature. The container must minimize thermal energy transfer to keep the insulin cool. Who It’s For:This design challenge, which comes with all necessary materials, is designed for middle schoolers (6th – 8th grade students). Using the Argument-Driven Inquiry instructional model, students will explore minimizing resource use and waste, energy transfer, and transformation topics.
