MCESA Career Development Facilitator Heather Masters shared photos from Corey Spurling’s Principles of Engineering class as students tested their underwater robotics projects in H.H. Dow High School's pool today!

This project was made possible thanks to a Gerstacker Teacher Innovator Grant that Mr. Spurling said will help the project run indefinitely. Students had just four weeks to design, build, and troubleshoot their robots before putting them to the test by measuring underwater cylinders anchored and suspended in the pool. To wrap up the activity, two student teams even raced their robots across the water!
