into the house.Students involved in this project have been experiencing structured independent research,creative thinking, and hands on experiences that benefit their future career and further the currentknowledge of alternative ambient energy sources. Most of the energy sources were defined bythe students and are being investigated. During the investigation a variety of software simulationtools such as LMS AMESim[29], Matlab, NI Multisim[30] etc. would be used prior to hands-onconstruction. Each source of ambient energy have been assigned to a student or student groupsaccording to their major/minor or individual interest. Page

At theend of each project, students evaluate each team member in terms of their contributions inability to work together, contributions, and their overall performance from starting with theMost Valuable Player at the top of the scale. While students can be somewhat uncomfortablerating others, it is explained that is a preparation for their future careers where honest andconscientious judgements of the performance of others is often required.A grade for each student is based upon the ratings of their classmates, and the instructor'sevaluations based on posters, presentations and reports.

be and can be better designed through 3Dmodeling software to create a more effective and efficient wind turbine. Through an understandingof aerodynamics and air flow, it is possible to generate an airfoil design for the blade of the windturbine, which induces lift by creating a low pressure, high velocity flow of air over its curved topsurface and a high pressure, low velocity pocket under the curved top surface, which will reducethe amount of drag back into the fan, increasing efficiency of the fan. The overall length and widthof the new design is similar to the flat blade design, but because of its curvature it has less surfacearea for the wind to contact it [12-15].In preparing students for their future career, virtual reality experiences
