Summary: Narrated by Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges, Dream big : engineering our world is a spectacular look at man-made marvels that will forever transform the way you think about engineering. It celebrates the human ingenuity behind engineering marvels big and small and shows how engineers push the limits of innovation in unexpected and amazing ways. It is more than a movie - it's part of a movement aimed at bringing engineering into the forefront of our culture. Dream big is the first giant-screen film to answer the call of the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) initiative, which aims to inspire kids of diverse backgrounds to become the innovators who will improve the lives of people across our entire planets as we head into the twenty-first century and beyond. That's why the film will be accompanied by ongoing educational, museum and community efforts to expose young people from all backgrounds to what engineering is... and what it can conjure in the world. This special educational 2-DVD edition offers the complete movie along with a 150-page educator's guide (12 lesson plans, including handouts), ten educational shorts, eight behind-the-scenes featurettes and eight more short "Fun Fact" videos. This set brings the wonder of engineering to life for students everywhere.
