LORD hosts teacher extern
Lab technicians, engineers and a college intern were all extremely patient and willing to answer my questions. This whole process of testing formulations, data analysis and drawing conclusions was time-consuming, but it opened my eyes to how the engineering design process and scientific method are used in the “real world.” I learned new methods of data analysis and will use this in the upcoming school year.
