Designing a Better Design Class: Silly Go-Karts at MIT

World Maker Faire 2015

May 18th-1st

Presentation Education

Since 2012, an experimental design class has been taught at MIT where novice students build electric go-karts and other vehicles during the semester, then race them. Find out why this class is different from other design classes and how it helps students develop skills and intuition in engineering.
