I was recently reading the January/February 2021 issue of \u201cScience\xa0\xa0& Children\u201d a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.\xa0\xa0In this issue, I read an article written by Matt Bobrowsky.\xa0\xa0His article was entitled \u201cQ: Can a Simple Engineering Project Be Used to Teach Some Science?.\u201d

Within the article, the author takes a quick look at the difference between science and engineering.\xa0\xa0Science increases our knowledge about the universe and our surroundings in a systematic way, while engineering is the application of this knowledge to create new and better products.
