Infrared Technology
North Posey High School | Posey, Indiana
NSWC Crane | Crane, Indiana
Physics teacher Marilyn Rogers knew that her students would benefit from working with NSWC Crane. During the project, students performed projectile experiments thus predicting where a projectile would land. It may sound complicated, but the engineers and physicists at Crane know how important extreme accuracy is. This application tied together both math and science to reach perfection.
It Takes Precision!
Pike Central High School | Petersburg, Indiana
Jasper Engines | Jasper, Indiana
Look around, almost everything you see is manufactured! With the help of Jasper Engines tooling division "Indiana Tooling" Mark Scott's students were able to learn more about setting up and operating the CNC equipment. Of course, problem solving and precision are extremely necessary while using manufacturing equipment. The greater benefit is industry working with schools to create skilled workforce employees.
