Wattwould not have been as successful without a politically connected partner in Boulton whowas able to get a 25 year extension on his initial patent. The iron making process thatmade Telford’s bridges economically possible caused huge environmental issues forEngland.

The coursesemploy a series of “in-class labs”, integrating the traditional lab and lecture sessions into one,and all in-class activities are done on student-owned laptops [1, 2]. The labs are crafted tocapture the student’s attention the entire time owing to the large distraction of having acomputer.

Female students were found to exhibit significantly higher viewing ratesthan their male counterparts.
