Leonardo da Vinci's ideas applied to modern toothbrushes!

Drawing is the language of engineers: across the world, languages—and time.

Engineers use drawing to develop and record their ideas, and convey them to others. Every engineer will be using and referring to some form of drawings almost daily because this is the most clear/direct way to convey and record information. It is very likely that every engineer will, at sometime, be checking the work of designer drafters and approving drawings before they are sent to manufacturing. When engineers sign off the final approval of a drawing, they take responsibility for it. An overlooked error in the drawing can be costly.

 

 

 

The Experience of Green Installation in Dumbo

Submitted by Ms. Walsh on November 14th, 2009 10:35 am

Two artists collaborated to create an incredible forest out of red craft paper. It's close by in Dumbo until Nov. 29th. I find it so inspiring and think students, parents and teachers will too....and it is free too!! ENJOY. 

When you leave the studio, you see green everywhere!! Info at:
