Six courses were
rewritten to provide the students with exposure to a range of
technologies that are utilized in underwater systems. MATE
materials are used in all six classes.
Students piloted their ROV in an
exhibit at the Aquarium of the Pacific during "Diver's Day" on
March 12, 2005:
Monica's 9th grade marine
seminar class spends part of the year learning about marine technology.
They build small ROV's and have a competition similar to the Summer
Institute competitions. The students write technical reports and do
formal presentations.
