MATE's 2004 ROV Summer Institute Participant Curriculum Products
Doug Levin– presentation abstract
Doug will be presenting a workshop on building ROVs at the NASA preservice teacher conference in February 2005 in Alexandria, Virginia.
ABSTRACT:
Participants will build low cost remotely operated vehicles that can be used
in swimming pools. This program follows curriculum designed by the Marine
Advanced Technology Education Center of Monterey Peninsula College in
California and is part of a NASA/UMES partnership called “Robotics in the
Classroom”. This workshop integrates lessons in electricity, buoyancy,
propulsion, geometric design, and team work with the natural sciences.
Funding dependent, participants will leave the classroom with a basic
underwater robot.
