Freie Universitat Berlin: Everyday Objects [Pdf]

In our daily lives we are surrounded by objects which have specific roles and functions. Some are relatively simple, like a drinking cup. Others are much more complex, like a mobile phone. This wonderful 56-page handbook presents activities where students investigate the functional aspects of everyday objects, their life cycles, the choices people make, and the implications these have for sustainable development. Includes lots of examples of student work.
