Wendy Green on Wednesday 02 April 2008 - 08:08:18Chris how long does it take for the uploads to show up? Wendy
Dan Leonard on Monday 14 January 2008 - 17:08:50Chris,
I've looked and there's nothing really there except some kids screwing around in class taking videos with their phones. I figured I'd at least see some CO2 racing at the least.
C Anderson on Sunday 13 January 2008 - 00:56:16Anyone tried a search for teched on youtube? The results arnt really representative of the profession - Any thoughts?
C Anderson on Tuesday 11 December 2007 - 06:18:26I have uploaded the one "egg crashing" video i have...just go up to the search tab above and type in "egg crashing" it will show up under the video downloads too.
later this week my kids and I will be launching a video campaign on YOUTUBE to share video from the last three years - I will share the links when I get them up
Dan Leonard on Tuesday 30 October 2007 - 08:41:58I'm in the middle of writing a grant proposal for a laser engraver and I need some help. I need examples of what the laser can do for a school system. If any has pictures of laser engraved stuff that I can use as part of a quick info sheet it would be greatly appreciated.
C Anderson on Sunday 14 October 2007 - 18:30:39Brian, you could come back down to our school, we have the large fabrication lab with a boat track, hydroponics and 1,000 g livestock tank where we raise tilapia and run the water through the plants,
Our design lab has pc's, cad, and cam equipment with laser and plastic printer. We just got the five star award from TEANJ. I think we have a great setup and course layout. In hs, the first elective is a foundations course covering the STL standards k-9 to catch kids up, then the other two electives cover the 7 areas of the designed world, spiraling standards 1-20 within a series of 7 modules, or units that end with a hands on design and problem solving activities
BMCDONALD on Thursday 11 October 2007 - 14:57:21Help is needed..
Kinnelon High School is completely redoing its technology classrooms. The Superintendent has ask that the teachers submit a design plan for the three classrooms. At the moment there are no constraints (except building expansion--knocking down an interior wall to combine two classrooms into a larger lab is an option). Completely rewiring labs and new equipment is expected. We are limited to three classrooms rooms roughly 1200 SQ FT each. (at the moment) What I would like to do is visit any program that has: A comprehensive technology lab setup. Programs that focus on materials processing (or have aspects of) and housed in 2500 SQFT rooms or smaller An electricity/electronics lab or program. A robotics program or lab. Can anybody offer any help? mcdonaldb©kinnelon.org
Jerry Greer on Sunday 07 October 2007 - 12:19:54I posted a problem with ProD on the forums. If you have had issues with ProD and fixed it, please let me know.

I putting together a grant proposal for an epilog laser. Any suggestions on what I should include? Dan
Jerry Greer on Friday 17 August 2007 - 16:13:26Chris-
thanks, books will come in handy as a great reference in my new clean room. Going to use ProD bigtime this year in the new school. jg
C Anderson on Saturday 04 August 2007 - 19:32:24Jerry, email me and I will hook you up with one of my copies. I need a mailing address
Jerry Greer on Monday 16 July 2007 - 10:57:50Any extra books?
C Anderson on Wednesday 11 July 2007 - 19:32:36Im training tech teachers in PRO D off a grant in NY now for the next few weeks, we are handing out Hutch's book to hundreds of teachers, its not dead, check out Prodesktop.net
Jerry Greer on Sunday 01 July 2007 - 10:28:59I've been ProE trained, but I can't run it on my pcs. District will not upgrade them. Consequently, I'm a ProD guy, just wondering if I'm really a dinosaur!
KenMaskell on Friday 29 June 2007 - 17:19:55
Jerry Greer on Saturday 16 June 2007 - 19:25:56Any users of ProD still out there?
C Anderson on Saturday 26 May 2007 - 11:27:26ProE training July 2nd/3rd in South Jersey, get your site license and 300 copies for $300. email canderson©gatewayhs.com
Jerry Greer on Sunday 20 May 2007 - 07:34:21I know that 'real' Rapid Prototyping is extremely cost-prohibitive to most schools. I'd be interested to see if anybody is using the 'economicsl' version that uses the sticky paper set up. That method seems do-able, crazy, but do-able!
C Anderson on Friday 18 May 2007 - 20:03:15Greg, I mailed you a reply with my number, get back to me.
