Fagan's Class

Goofy engineering & robotics teacher @thesmsd making space for the designs, solutions and dreams of future engineers! Views are my own.

Robotic surgical arm built end of last semester. ♥️ the reaction 😮 of classmate on far right as they demonstrate #PLTW #SMN #HockerGrove

5 awesome former students recognized in a NASA contest seeking designs for future space flight!
Our signature engineering program has students from all 5 of our high schools, and yet 5 of the 6 names here come from North!😁 #pltw @HockerGroveMS @SM_NORTH_HS @theSMSD

Studying beam deflection. Using the beam’s Modulus of Elasticity and deflection, students can calculate each other’s weight accurately within a few pounds! #poe #pltw @SM_NORTH_HS @HockerGroveMS

[Fagan's Class @ReedFagan1]

Principles of Engineering students designed complex shapes, calculated the centroids, then printed them out w/ a divot to test their calculations! (If cut from sheet metal they’d balance w/o spinning, but not w/ how our printers print) #poe #pltw @SM_NORTH_HS @HockerGroveMS

Created a CorelDraw file and sent it to the laser engraver today on my own! Prep for our Robotics Day - come find out for what!

Much thanks to Rod Terflinger for teaching me how to use this last year.

Yesterday the Robotics classes from East, West and North competed in an FTC-style competition. All had a blast and we look forward to future meetings! Come see us at the R&D Open House M, Tu, or W next week at the CAA! @theSMSD @SM_NORTH_HS

Retweeting b/c, what engineering teacher doesn't love beautiful stats and graphs?! #pltw #BUFvsKC

[Next Gen Stats @NextGenStats]

Patrick Mahomes faced two-high safety shells on 92% of plays, the 2nd-highest rate of his career. As a result, Mahomes did not attempt a deep pass for the first full game in his career.

» Mahomes vs Two-High: 29/38, 344 yards, 2 TD (+17.6 passing EPA)

@SMNSOW1 Henry's demonstrating some great skills, & helpfulness, in class! Well deserved!

[@SMNSOW @SMNSOW1]

Congratulations to Henry Duff, our Student of the Week! Henry was nominated by Mr. Fagan for helping and motivating peers with their assignment in his engineering class!
