"‘Go Baby Go’ provides an authentic engineering design challenge for middle and high school students, who must develop a design that will meet the specific needs of each child," said Love, shown here instructing a group of students.
Students worked on implementing the engineering design process to modify the cars, which came in kits they had to build, to be safer and more user friendly for the children.
Love said that they would love to double the number of cars built next year and provide cars to more children. He added that they also would want to involve students from more middle and high schools in the region, as well as provide the option for Penn State Harrisburg students to participate in the build phase.
