Our lab has a connection with NASA to help collect data from outer space explorations through radio telescopes. Students working in this area of study also have direct links to talk with scientists. This gives a real hands on experience for students to be engaged in. <span> <\/span><span> <\/span>Now the stem program is opening up to other departments on campus such as Art, English, Social Science, and Dental Hygiene. The lab has the ability to transmit live data to other states so students can have a visual to understand their area of study better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;font-size: small\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt\"><span>The lab is designed with four computers on the inside that project to the four big screens located on the outside of the lab. The lab also has its very own Rover that collects data wherever it is released. The lab also has the ability to set up its very own Wi-Fi hotspot wherever it goes which is very convenient for learning sessions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;font-size: small\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt\"><span>The Stem program is preparing to use the mobile lab a lot more often.
