This is an excellent team project. Way to get high schoolers engaged in STEM to make a difference in the world! This is magical.
Let me know if you'd have teachers and students in your network that would like to replicate this project. I'm ready to help!
Spectacular Tom. Many high 5s to you. I love your quote towards the end - it had me stop the tape and rewind: "At what point in your life did you discover the world needs you?" I love it - exactly who said that, what's their name - I'd like to quote them... Finally, thanks for sharing, and inspiring me and others.
+Mark Collard Thank you for your kind comments. Being a fellow experiential educator I know you see the value in this type of learning. The quote of "At what point..." is from my good friend Doc Klein at Uncharted Territories (www.unchartedterritories.us/). Doc is a former Outward Bound instructor.
Great work.
