Workshop for Teachers LEGO Michigan Teacher Workshop http://www.marshall.edu/lego/mi/miteacherworkshop.htm
Students at Marshall University in West Virginia, USA, drove through a LEGO model of a heart that was set up at Davis Creek Elementary. A LEGO RED ROVER with a camera on top drove through the maze by controls through the internet. http://courses.marshall.edu/~hamilton/public/MathAwareness/MAM99.htm
Davis Creek Elementary's Mars Red Rover traveled to Morgantown on November 30 through December 2 to present three programs to teachers, NASA representatives, Marshall and West Virginia University professors, and West Virginia's excellent science teachers. In these presentations Linda Hamilton spoke of the history of our DC Mars Red Rover Project that has been sponsored these past three years by a NASA K12 Outreach Grant from the NASA Space Consortium of West Virginia. Also supporting an accompanying program is the Nick J. Rahall, II, Appalachian Transportation Institute at Marshall University. http://boe.cabe.k12.wv.us/daviscre/wvstanovdec2000.htm
A ROBOTICS presentation was brought to the MIT Media Lab by Linda Hamilton who does k-12 math/science outreach with the schools using LEGO elements including RCX programmable brick. The presentation showed what the students have done, especially making a Mars Red Rover and teleoperating over the internet. Working with a LEGO rover is part of Red Rover Goes to Mars project that could lead to students being NASA scientists on the 2001 Mars Rover and Lander. http://www.marshall.edu/lego/MITMindFest/MITMindFestHamilton.html
