The dollaramount is typically $60 for a 1000 gram latex balloon and $130 for the helium. So, a BalloonSat Page 12.1301.3launch can be performed for under $200. (There are hidden costs such as transportationexpenses.) The non-recurring costs are vested in the LaunchOIT program. (This is typically onthe order of $900-$1,000, not including the balloon.

Process for Continuous ImprovementA well-structured process of continuous improvement is designed to be self-driven. Itincludes automatic triggers for action and has checks and balances in place to lead theaction plan through completion. Faculty involvement at every step is the key for thesuccess of the program and hence training for faculty becomes a critical element of thisprocess. A continuous improvement model was presented by the author at the CIECconference in 2007.13 This model has been revised to include new assessment tools andpresented in Section a. Section b presents the implementation of the model and efforts toinstitutionalize the process.a. The Assessment and Continuous Improvement ModelThe plan for assessment and continuous

The common understanding that “junk in = junk out” has very muchproven to be accurate, but students need to understand what is “junk”. The theoreticalunderstanding of restricting a body from rigid body motion, and the type of elements touse for meshing are examples of concepts being assessed.
