Verification and Validation The K12 Engineering Education Podcast

Guest engineer and consultant Pat Sweet, P.Eng., talks about two of his favorite
words in engineering: verification and validation. They describe concepts whose
importance cuts across all the engineering disciplines, and so engineering
educators could also teach these fundamental concepts to kids and teens. This
episode is a rebroadcast of two short episodes of Engineering Word Of The Day, a
podcast on the favorite, fascinating, or funny words and phrases used in various
engineering disciplines. Mentioned in this episode: • Engineering Word Of The
