Summer Project
Risk reduction testing for new battery technology insertion

Experience
"I was surprised how quickly our teacher integrated into our team, learned the purpose of the risk reduction testing and proactively took on assignments. He brought intelligence, diversity and energy in troubleshooting tough technical issues with high-value hardware.

The idea of exposing our community’s STEM educators to real-world applications of the material they teach and then having them bring it back to the classroom to energize students, is a noble mission. I will continue to support this initiative to help foster the next generation of engineers / educators because it will ensure America continues to thrive."

Outcome
“The diversity of the teacher’s thoughts and ideas greatly contributed to the success of our project, and his insights into creatively teaching STEM motivated me to attempt exciting experiments with my son.”
