Next Steps - December 4, 2017 Meeting
- Involve some high school science teachers/groups to explore this and consider what modules would meet their requirements. Nan will contact appropriate people.
- All attendees should have demo accounts to explore the existing simulations. Angie will set up those accounts. Angie will also e-mail the list of simulations available.
- Philippos says we should meet with ASU to discuss possible areas of collaboration. ASU would likely also be interested in high school students being prepared to use this virtual lab technology when they attend university.
- Steve will talk to key individuals at the UofA and NAU
- We need to consider funding possibilities, such as a consortium or partnerships or grants. We should explore possibilities of funding from Science Foundation of Arizona and Helios Foundation.
- Steve, Oris, Angie and Henry will prepare a draft document about the project and planned actions.
