We made exciting progress on the following fronts:
- Identified a model that would extend learning beyond the course i.e. Family Science Courses.
- Conducted a 40 hour course with 60 high school students in which they designed and built a city that ran on wind, water, solar (and human) power.
- Developed a partnership with the Aerospace & Mechanical Engineering Department, USC through which undergraduate students earned 3 credits for teaching these courses. We started off the “Engineers as Teachers” course with 6 students in the fall. They conducted 8-18 hour courses on Aeronautics, Physics of Sailing, Renewable Energy and Rockets!
