Over ten different areas forevaluation and other projects were identified before shifting the conversation to prioritizing certainareas for immediate evaluation versus future evaluation projects. Ultimately, the team decided toexplore five specific projects, three of which pertained to the external evaluation. These aredescribed below:Project 1: Evaluation of the unexpected impacts of The Center. The purpose of this project was 1to understand how The Center impacted the university in unexpected ways, outside of teaching-related outcomes. This question was being explored as The Center employees recognize that theyare often asked to participate in events, committees, and

The goal of using the system was to allow the students to develop the skillsetnecessary to create a series of projects that utilized light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a moisturesensor. These projects fit well within the existing 5th grade science curriculum.Once the students understood how The System functioned, they developed and began testing aseries of systems to measure the moisture content of the air at a number of different locationsaround their school. These systems recorded moisture data for subsequent analysis. This was allfacilitated by using the system to
