Bridge Inspection
Lesson 2

Bridge Inspection

Students learn about and discuss how drones are used in structure inspections. During the activity, they code Hopper to simulate inspecting a bridge after an earthquake so that they can identify any changes in the structure.

Learning Objectives


-Participate in a group discussion about the ways in which drones are used in structure inspections.


-Accurately code Hopper to inspect various viewpoints of a bridge in a simulation with the use of a function.


-Use the Engineering Design Process (EDP) and STEM practices to redesign Hopper’s code as needed.
