Engineering Habits of Mind<\/strong><\/a> – Engineering Habits of Mind have been developed my The Royal Academy of Engineering to outline the skills and attributes employed by Engineers across disciplines. When used along side the design process, they can be used to develop pupils\u2019 STEM skills and skills that can be used across the curriculum. This toolkit provides some simple examples of how the attributes of each habit can be developed across the curriculum<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Rosie Revere Engineer Story<\/a> <\/strong>– This book is used as a stimulus and context for exploring aspects of Health and Wellbeing (resilience, Growth Mindset, self-esteem, perseverance) and promotes the themes of creative thinking, problem finding and solving, improving and adapting \u2013 which are \u2018Engineering Habits of Mind\u2019 (see page 3). The activities suggested here have an engineering focus and sit within the \u2018Craft, Design, Engineering and Graphics\u2019 part of the Technologies Es and Os, specifically the \u2018Design and construct models\/product\u2019, \u2018Exploring uses of materials\u2019 and \u2018Application of Engineering\u2019 organisers. The suggested learning activities also provide opportunities for Literacy and Numeracy skills to be developed too plus also link to some science outcomes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
