D.I.V.E. Handed to Students!

Amidst the flurry of positive developments over the past few months, the Operation DIVE project has traveled to new depths, up north! With some concerns raised over the safety issues of the project, a plan is currently working to have students at Traverse City Central High School develop the prototype design of the DIVE concept. Since CEF is about student-led learning, the teachers and students are weaving the DIVE design into a larger grant application that will involve the development of several underwater ROV teams.

One student sugested that perhaps we take the "Geocaching" idea but create a "Bay-Caching" project, where teams wirelessly maneuver their research vessels to specified coordinates and search the bay for the caches planted below!

A proposal from the school is expected this week! 10.30.06
