Time Engineers

This website suggests you are a student who comes across a Time Engineers binder about a time-travel machine built to document the history of engineering. A catapult simulation covers Algebra (linear expressions), Physical Science and Technology (forces and motion, pulleys, gears) and History (Middle Ages). From Software Kids.

Try Engineering!

Sometimes the best way to understand what engineers do is to try your hand at it! This website has a ton of fun stuff to do, including a fast paced trivia game; design a parachute, a steel highway bridge or a roller coaster; learn about simple and compound machines while you explore the House and Tool Shed; design a machine that serves lunch and more!

Become a Civil Engineer

The American Society of Civil Engineers website asks, "Do you like games? Can't refuse a good challenge? Try civil engineering out for yourself." This site has lots of fun ways to see what civil engineering is all about. Watch out - you might learn something!
