Systems And Control RETURN TO MECHANIA


Long ago, the Kingdom of Mechania was known throughout the world for its citizens’ learning and their skill with mechanisms and machines. But Mechania fell upon darker times and the citizens were banished. They will face many dangers on the way, and many puzzles must be solved, but will they succeed? The future is in the balance…


All the DT, none of the equipment! Get your class’s cross‐ curricular problem‐solving cogs turning with this exciting new software – ideal for this hard‐to‐teach curriculum area. Mechanisms and key principles are all brought together to create many meaningful and engaging problem‐solving opportunities –


guaranteed to develop thinking skills and broaden pupils’ understanding of mechanical principles. ‐ highly interactive and flexible “explore” mode for each mechanism ‐ perfect for whole‐class work ‐ all key mechanism: cams, linkages, balances, pneumatics, pulleys, gears ‐motivating “adventure” to practise knowledge and understanding
