will transfer to their future career. We compared these results with the work doneby Keshwani and Keshwani [3], performed before the COVID-19 pandemic, where responsesdescribed the community as “Shared time and location”, “Common goal and interest”, and“Knowing people”. In a post-pandemic time, participants valued relationship building andefforts beyond “Sharing time and location”.In a prior study, responses also linked community with “knowing people” [3] ; thus we askedstudents what activities helped them to meet new people. Figure 2.b., shows that in-classactivities and the laboratory helped them meet new people the most, providing in-personinteractions in small groups. During the laboratory meetings, students worked with the sameassigned

future, the project team plans to conductexperiments with other variations of photoperiod. General observation of the trial indicated thatthe longer photoperiod helped the peanut plants to grow more vigorously with the increasedphotoperiod. The seed inoculation was randomized for each zone in Figures 3a and 3b, locationsdesignated as A indicates inoculated seeds, and B indicate non-inoculated seeds. For both trials,gypsum was added to the soil after the flowering of the plants. The peanuts were hand harvestedroughly five and a half months after planting for both FarmBot beds (April/May –September/October timeframe). The harvest from each plant was counted and weighed.4.0 Harvest Data AnalysisIrrigation was discontinued two weeks before the

forcing intopiping or channels to introduce fresh air into the structure, and to the south side of the structureto allow for adequate capture of light to stimulate the bioreaction. With proper monitoring of thebioreactor using various sensors, the reactors could actively monitor and harvest the growth ofalgae. This could remove excess buildup and deposit it for use in a fermenting tank to produceethanol for the building energy needs, with the flue gasses being collected and introduced intothe bioreactors.IntroductionWhat is a bioreactor? A bioreactor is a device or system that uses biological organisms to complete a specificchemical or biological process. For the purpose of this paper, the organism will be algae.
