Question

incredible inventions!
mi science standard: 8.1.3.2.1 describe examples of important contributions to the advancement of science, engineering and technology made by individuals representing different groups and cultures at different times in history.
mi science standard: 8.1.3.3.1 explain how scientific laws and engineering principles, as well as economic, political, social, and ethical expectations, must be taken into account in designing engineering solutions or conducting scientific investigations.
what is the invention called?
when was it made? where was it made?
inventor(s):
what does it do?
think backwards: what problem does it solve? (2pts)

Explanation:

This worksheet is about documenting an invention, including its name, time, place, inventor, function, and the problem it solves. Since it's related to science, engineering, and technology contributions, the subfield under Natural Science - Engineering (or a related subfield like Technology) is relevant. But as a worksheet to be filled, we can take an example like the "Telephone". Let's fill it:

What is the invention called? Telephone
When was it made? 1876
Where was it made? United States
Inventor(s): Alexander Graham Bell
What does it do? It allows people to communicate verbally over long distances in real - time.
Think backwards: what problem does it solve? Before the telephone, long - distance communication was slow (relying on mail, messengers) or limited (like telegraph with coded messages). The telephone solved the problem of quick, direct, verbal long - distance communication.

Answer:
