Outreach is one
of programs of RASCAL laboratory, which is an educational
partnership between RASCAL laboratory members and high school
students to improve engineering education. All RASCAL laboratory
members are strongly encouraged to participate in outreach
activities. Our primary focus is multiple classroom visits
and problem sets solving. As teachers and students get to
know more, we develop resources and programs to further the
network, such as organizing the high school students to visit
RASCAL laboratory, and insisting on their robotic design competition.
Our mission is, through creative methods, to encourage the
students’ interests in engineering.
SCHOOL INFORMATION:
School name: Lehman High School in Bronx
Instructor: Evan Weinberg, Math and engineering teacher
Directions: Get to the 6-train using any route you
prefer, then take a Bronx-bound 6 to Westchester Square -
East Tremont Avenue. Go down the stairs and out of the station
and walk under the bridge across Westchester Avenue towards
the diner on the corner. Then walk clockwise along the block,
past the dunkin donuts. Lehman is the looming behemoth straight
ahead. Keep walking up the hill past the parking lot and you'll
see entry gates on the right. Go through those gates, straight
ahead through the doors and you'll be there. Check in with
security - photo ID is all you need

Lecture Schedule
PROBLEM SETS
The problem sets will be given before the class, and there
is going to be a Yahoo web to discuss the questions.
NOTEBOOK
A notebook, which is on the desk behind the door of our lab,
is used to record the activities, problems or any suggestion
to keep the process continuous and make program improve. Also,
since outreach is one part of the measurement of the students’
performance in the class, please make sure to sign on the
notebook.
