BUILD TO BLOOM

E2E x Mill City Grows

Forty students at Lincoln Elementary School in Lowell, MA, built planters to grow radishes and lettuce at home. Our team designed and fabricated planter components by laser cutting plywood, featuring a clear acrylic panel for students to see plant growth. We partnered with Mill City Grows, an organization in Lowell, MA that provides gardening and food education to local schools, who showed students how to plant the seedlings with soil.

ASSISTIVE DEVICE DESIGN

E2E x eNable Lowell

Students from our Watertown Program visited the UMass Lowell Lawrence Lin Makerspace where engineering students from eNable Lowell showed them how to assemble wrist-actuated assistive devices for children with limb differences.

ENGINEERING DESIGN PROCESS

E2E x The Boys & Girls Club of Greater Lowell

Miranda Titus from E2E led a workshop with kids from the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Lowell to explore the engineering design process. They focused on defining product requirements based on user needs, using the Book Nook project for our Winter Program as an example.
