PBL Tools
Great vid. PBL can be a powerful tool. I think what many people don't realize is that in PBL the point is not just to learn about a certain topic, but also to learn how to work in groups and manage projects. If students don't learn that skill they will get frustrated easily. I bult http://Enterthegroup.com as a free solution to help students learn PM and give them a networking platform to collaborate.
Electric Vehicle Conversion
Is it a good idea to start an electric vehicle conversion project from your garage? Many automobile owners are having a tough time with high gasoline prices. Those that use muscle cars or Sport Utility Vehicles (SUV) are having a hard time trying to cope with their high gas expenses.
