The school year has started off very positively. Students are highly interested in learning about how sensors works and are applied throughout society. During the upcoming year, I plan on having guest speakers from NC State come in and talk with the class in addition to guest speakers from various local industries. I have also picked up teaching materials (Arduino LilyPads, USB Cables, and Alligator Clips) from our mentor. The program was setup well enough that they were able to provide material funds for each teacher to use. This is a highly beneficial aspect of the program because of how difficult it can be to get equipment through the schools at the beginning of the year (and throughout it as well).

Within the next month, students will be completing their wearable device project.
