Edutopia: Learning with Rube Goldberg Machines

Edutopia has put together a list of videos and other resources to help kids learn how to make Rube Goldberg machines and explore engineering.

OK Go

The band OK Go built a Rube Goldberg machine to use for one of their music videos.  The students (and I) really enjoyed this video!

Honda Rube Goldberg

This is another video we watched in class.  It is a commercial for Honda Accord.  Everything they used in the Rube Goldberg machine is a piece from the actual car.
