Bio-Inspired Design: Animals in Action is the first curriculum pertaining to The Kendeda Building. It is written for the 7th grade and was developed by Amanda Reding (through the Georgia Intern Fellowships for Teachers Program) with support from the School of Industrial and System Engineering and CEISMC. This curriculum connects the State of Georgia’s teaching standards directly with biologically-inspired elements of the Living Building Challenge to help guide students’ understanding of how nature and science can help solve the many challenges of achieving Living Building Challenge certification. By incorporating state standards into the lessons, this curriculum provides an easily accessible path for students across Georgia to “visit” the building without ever leaving their classroom.
