Lesson Overview

Lesson 1 - Wheel and Transmission: To introduce wheels and direction of belt transmission

Lesson 2 - Gears: To introduce tooth gears and the related transmission 

Lesson 3 - Mechanical Symmetry: To introduce the concept of mechanical symmetry

Lesson 4 - Walking Mechanism: To introduce symmetry and asymmetry mechanism

Lesson 5 - Speed-changing: To introduce speed-decreasing transmission using a belt

Lesson 6 - Worm Gear: To introduce worm gear applications and double snail transmission

Lesson 7 - Slider Mechanism: To introduce slider mechanism and how the mechanical parts push an object upward

Lesson 8 - Prehistory: To introduce prehistoric animals and ecosystem

Lesson 9 - Gear-shifting: To introduce gear-shifting mechanism in changing the velocity of a machine
