VIRTUAL LAB (UNDER CONSTRUCTION)

Research has always been important to me.  I am starting a virtual lab to allow students the chance to collaborate on projects that are above and beyond typical standards.  Projects will include the following:

​

Category

Topics will fit into a category so similar projects can benefit from common research.

​

Need

Most research meets the need of people or make their lives better.  

​

Research

Look up information (and cite) about your topic and plan

​

Design and Build

I believe the best way to learn is to design and then build.  If it doesn't work then learn (more research), modify, and try again.  

​

Example:

Category - transportation

Need - cheap, transportation for in town that anyone can use (no license required)

Research -  

1. What is limitation for being on road but not requiring a license

2. What kind of power are you using

3. What has already been done

Design - 

Can you implement an idea from someone else or make it better.  Do you have a brand new idea (protect it - people will try to take it and patents are first to file).
