Tech-Explorer

From NSF's Advanced Technological Education program and Sierra Community College, the Tech-Explorer project brings applied mathematics to middle and high school students through a hands-on activity of building and testing catapults. This project also promotes interest in STEM careers. On this site, visitors will find information about the project, instructions and equipment for the activity, and relevant documents for students and instructors in Tech-Explorer programs or interested in developing a similar program in their school.
