I've uploaded the file which has all the info for the project, including all your due dates. This is for your reference if needed.
We'll be running them after the Holiday break, but remember that the car has to be finished before we head out for Christmas and New Years.

NEW HOMEWORK AS OF MONDAY, NOVEMBER 26!!
Below are two links. One for CyberKinetics, the other an article about Matthew Nagle. I want you to read the one about Matthew and then summarize it. At the end of your summary, write the following question: "What do you think the future holds for this type of technology?". Answer the question with at least two paragraphs. The link for CyberKinetics is there for you to use as a possible source for your answer.
If you have any time left over, go to icouldbe.org and continue working there, or work on your vocabulary.

Assignment
In our next project, we will be creating presentations about the various types of Engineering that exist. Part of that presentation will be giving information about where you could go to school to get a degree in Engineering. So, to prepare for that, we need to figure out how to get that information.
Research colleges and universities that give degrees in Engineering. Email me with the names and websites of at least two colleges that you look up. For each school, tell me
1) did you like or dislike this school (in other words does it look like a place you would want to go to school.
2) Why do you like or dislike this school.
You may want to pick one you like, and one you dislike, and do a compare and contrast on them. Or you can pick two you like. Please do not pick two you don't like. That would be defeating the purpose of the exercise.

Assignment
We've been discussing how we've been moving forward in technology, inventing new things and making things better and faster.
Why, then, are people going back to low-tech ideas that are hundreds of years old?
Click on the link and find out.
After you've read this article, open Microsoft Word. think about other forms of technology that we can look backward to that would be useful, just like the windmill in this story. Write at least two paragraphs on on that other technology you choose, (you'll have to figure out what to write about) and tell me why you think going backward would be beneficial to our world as a whole.
See you tomorrow.
