Using TeacherGeek® Crazy Contraptions
with Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device
![Page 2: The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device. It is a set of resources for your students to use that will.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551813f1550346ac318b4596/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
A Set of resources to help your students succeed.
• The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device.
• It is a set of resources for your students to use that will increase safety, rigor, efficiency, and success.
![Page 3: The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device. It is a set of resources for your students to use that will.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551813f1550346ac318b4596/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
INCREASED SAFETY
• Hot Glue tends to be the number one cause of injury for students working on Rube Goldberg Devices. The TeacherGeek® Easy Engineering System significantly reduces the usage of hot glue.
• Few (if any) power tools are required
![Page 4: The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device. It is a set of resources for your students to use that will.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551813f1550346ac318b4596/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
INCREASED RIGOR
• Make the most of the time your students spend working on the Rube Goldberg Activity.
• Incorporate concepts such as the design process, mechanical advantage, creating and using a design matrix, and more.
![Page 5: The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device. It is a set of resources for your students to use that will.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551813f1550346ac318b4596/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
INCREASED EFFICIENCY
• Mechanical Fastening Techniques cut down on time wasted waiting for hot glue to solidify.
• Do you have a design change? It’s no big deal with the Easy Engineering System
• Parts move freely with little friction
![Page 6: The Crazy Contraptions Activity is not a replacement for Activity 1.5 Rube Goldberg Device. It is a set of resources for your students to use that will.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551813f1550346ac318b4596/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
INCREASED COST EFFICIENCY
• One stop shop – All of the components needed to build Rube Goldberg Devices are included.
• Recycle – Contraptions can be taken apart and the parts can be reused for many classes. The more parts you recycle, the less you need to purchase.

Increased Success• Once students understand how to use the
Easy Engineering system, they can easily turn their designs into reality.
• Reduce the “I’m Done” comments. Students can continually refine and improve their designs.
