WORKSHOPS with Lego
The purpose of the Brickologists,
Young Engineers program is to introduce
theoretical knowledge and practical skills
in the areas of mathematics, physics and
engineering basics to school children
using motorised LEGO and additional
means that create and produce energy.
The main idea of the program is to demonstrate the scientific principles in an experimental way - through stories, demonstrations and by having fun through building LEGO models. In order to build the models each child receives a kit especially for this purpose.
Each school holiday Lego workshop lasts for 2 hours where the children build a motorised model under instruction, play with the model they have built, then move onto enhancing their models with play at all stages.
