Learning Activity in STEM
The STEM Paper Airplane Challenge, which is also available as an alternative to the
Easy Paper Airplane, is a fantastic method to include youngsters in the process of creating and
flying paper aircraft. There are no restrictions on the age of the youngsters who may participate,
and it can be done in as little as one hour (Rachel, 2021).
Learning Goals
Students seeking qualifications in STEM fields have a variety of learning objectives,
including motivation, problem-solving, and discussion (Connolly, 2018). At the end of this
activity learners will be ale to :
1.
Identify and solve problems in activities of science, technology, engineering, and
mathematics, reinforce their cognition, and produce knowledge and ideas.
2.
Recognize the learning processes as much as possible when confronted with a problem
that they must solve.
3.
Develop an airplane paper craft that may subsequently fly in a specified location to help
them have a better understanding of the need of accuracy in their own activities.
4.
Practice and finish the target distance of the airplane in a timely way
STEM Learning Activity
Beyond being entertaining, the paper aircraft game is an excellent way to teach children
about all STEM disciplines while also extending their imaginations and supporting them in
making connections via problem-solving abilities.
Paper Airplane Challenge for Students in STEM
In elementary school classes, a variant of this strategy could be employed. It is necessary
to complete the exercise by designing a paper aircraft that can transport supplies and soar over 2
meters. The cargo in this situation consists of numerous pennies. It would be decided that the
champion of the activity is the child who can fly the most coins in a certain length of time.

Provisions necessary for the construction of the paper aircraft challenge would include various
amounts of coins, a doorway, adhesives, and manilla papers.
The most efficient strategy to solve the challenge
Challenge should have a definite result in mind
1.
The first obstacle to overcome is one of precision. To demonstrate its capacity to climb
through a certain location, the aircraft must demonstrate that it can rise through that site.
2.
A distinction 2 metres from an entryway should be made which could be used as an aim
in this project, and the area should be marked with the adhesive to indicate where the line should
be drawn.
3.
A stretch of adhesive should be placed across the entryway until it is about 1/4 of the way
down from its tallest point sufficiently.
4.
Preventative measures will be taken by the youngsters, who will launch their paper
airplanes into the air and try to fly them over the indicated tape.
5.
The winner of the competition is determined by the youngster who flies the most
accurately while also flying the heaviest airplane at the same time.
Putting skills to the test over long distances
Completing a long distance task presents still another obstacle, as well. For this
challenge, the learner must do the following:
1.
Make a mark on the floor using tape to indicate where you want to start. What is
considered "in boundaries" is based on the surrounding environment.
2.
Everyone would begin with equal weight on their aircraft, and they then take turns
tossing the planes a long distance.
3.
When multiple rounds of the game are played, make a note of the aircraft' landing places.
4.
The youngster who can toss the aircraft the most distance would be declared the winner
of the challenge.
