Project Activities
In Phase I, a hardware prototype will be designed/developed that engages students with scientific investigation. A suite of education content will also be developed that teaches science principles through hands-on learning activities and interaction with the prototype. To develop the product, Future Engineers will conduct educator discovery sessions and product design reviews in the first half of the R&D effort. At the end of Phase I, researchers will complete two pilot studies. Pilot Study 1, the Mission Test, will evaluate/validate the hardware prototype through a simulated field test scenario. Pilot Study 2, the Educator Study, will use the prototype to evaluate the product’s success potential with regards to education outcome goals, implementation strategy, and business model.
