Week+of+July+30


 * Monday, July 30 -**
 * Make to Learn (MtL) STEM Ed. Lab
 * Brie meets Beth at 3
 * Peter and Eric will meet with Adwait on Friday - need wind turbine deadline, get key, circuits - audio and turbine
 * need to log hours and outcomes


 * Tuesday, July 31 -**
 * Talk to Peter about lesson
 * Dropbox: Karen's request... It might be the conference room Mac, and I have no idea the username and password that Monty used to create that Dropbox account. - Eric will check with Robert, Jennie, and Joe
 * Willy needs a science teacher; Peter might, too; Jake, three (Heather Kepple?)
 * Plan timeline
 * Research questions to share with Jennie the science guru
 * IRB
 * http://videocases.wikispaces.com/ and http://energy3d.wikispaces.com/


 * Wednesday, August 1 -**
 * communication with elementary teachers
 * Wind Update - Beth, Crystal
 * request for GB approval: materials
 * Eric on Work Study


 * Thursday, August 2 -**
 * Electromagnetism Update
 * build, then measure, then analyze data, identify opportunities for improvement, refine design based on analysis of data, rebuild and measure. --> telegraph? telegraph key with goal of optimizing for 100% closure with least cost?
 * can we work in a parallel circuit in a telegraph? (you're in NY and want to talk to Boston and Philadelphia)


 * Friday, August 3 -**
 * Sound Update
 * request for GB approval: materials
 * Things to measure:
 * Wave form
 * Intensity
 * Frequency is more difficult; Can kind of get at frequency by generating a pure tone- could map the response of a speaker; bass, how low can you go?
 * Electromagnetism: Something moving can be graphed and helping students understand the connection between the graph and the physical event
 * Cigarbox Banjo; Gavin's electrical guitar is kind of a merging of the speaker and musical instrument
 * Guitar solves the problem of crosstalk


 * Would want to have two different tuning forks - pickups on TF.
 * Display signal input from each of the tuning forks - possible combine two tones in speaker output
