The Science Of Disney Imagineering: Fluids
|
|
Our Price: $29.99
|
|
|
WINNER 2009 Parents' Choice Gold Award. What bit of science do the Imagineers turn to when they want to make a splash? Fluids! In this DVD, the Imagineers demonstrate how they use fluids to their advantage in constructing rides and attractions like Grizzly River Run and The Seas with Nemo and Friends. Students will learn that a fluid is any substance that flows or moves easily due to its molecular make-up. They will also discover how fluid dynamics help us learn how fluids move and behave and also how fluids can be used to create mechanical advantage. Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus "try it yourself" experiment and an interactive assessment to reinforce key learnings.

Our Price: $29.99
|
|
|
WINNER 2009 Parents' Choice Gold Award. What scientific principle is at work in every theme park ride the Imagineers create? It's Energy. The Imagineers reveal
the role energy plays in popular theme park attractions such as Epcot's Test Track and the Mad Tea Party. Students will learn that energy is the ability to do work and that energy is constantly being transferred from one thing to another. They will also identify the difference between potential and kinetic energy and be able to establish examples and benefits of renewable energy. Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus "try it yourself" experiment and an interactive assessment to reinforce key learnings.

The Science of Disney Imagineering: Design & Models
|
|
Our Price: $29.99
|
|
|
WINNER 2009 Parents' Choice Gold Award. How did the Imagineers create a realistic looking snow-capped mountain in Florida for Animal Kingdom's Expedition Everest? They started with a design process and models. Using real theme park rides and attractions, like Radiator Springs Racers and Toy Story Midway Mania, students will see how design and models are used to put things together and make them function. They will learn the steps of the engineering design process as well as how both physical and computer aided design models are useful. Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus "try it yourself" experiment and an interactive assessment to reinforce key learnings.

Actually, it's simple... simple machines, that is! Here, the Imagineers give a new look at how levers and pulleys were utilized to create attractions such as Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Soarin' Over California. Students will see how levers and pulleys make work easier by either multiplying or redirecting the effort we put into them. They will identify the two forces involved in using a machine and learn to calculate mechanical advantage, given effort and resistance. Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus "try it yourself" experiment and an interactive activity to reinforce key learnings.

WINNER - 2009 Teachers' Choice Award, 2009 Parents' Choice Gold Award, Instructor Magazine Best DVD Series 2009. What is the force that puts the thrill in thrill rides? Gravity, of course! One of the biggest challenges for Imagineers in designing theme park attractions, like Disney's Rockin' Roller Coaster and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, is figuring out the best way to work with-and sometimes against-gravity's constant 1G force. Students learn to define gravity and explain the relationship between gravity, mass, and distance. Best of all, they will be able to apply an understanding of forces to explain the feeling of weightlessness on a rollercoaster ride. Cool! Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus "try it yourself" experiment and an interactive activity to reinforce key learnings.
