^ J L . working o n projects dealing with robotics, traffic sim ulation, circuits, water quality, composite materials, corrosion, tsunami sim ulation, and concrete construction .

Mdiat may seem unusual is seeing high school students a t the College o f E ngineering work­ing on projects dealing with robotics, traffic sim ulation, circuits, w ater quality, com posite m aterials, corrosion, tsunam i sim ulation, and concrete construction .

However, tha t is exactly w hat h ap p en ed this sum m er at the College, thanks to the College o f E ng ineering H igh School In ternsh ip Program .

In its fou rth year, the in ternsh ip program is an opportunity for accepted h igh school students to experience eng ineering research at the collegiate level. T he students are p laced in areas th a t they are in terested in and are m en to red by faculty, researchers, an d eng ineering students.

“I think the most enjoyable part of my internship was working with the people at the lab. They were all very kind and considerate to me. It was through their advice and teaching that I learned so. much about engineering. ”

X JL s i x t h GRADERS FROM NOELANI SCHOOL ANXIOUSLY AWAITED FOR ONE THING: SUMMER VACATION.

However, the College o f E ng ineering gave them an o th e r th ing to look forw ard to.

For the fifth graders it was the opportun ity to design and construct the ir own je t toy, using kits d o n a ted by the Society o f A utom otive Engineers. T he kits consisted o f a paper fram e, plastic wheels and axles, tub ing in th ree d ifferen t diam eters, several balloons, an d an air pum p.

T he sixth graders w orked o n designing and build ing wing spars, which is w here the wings an d the fuselage o n an a irp lane m eet. This pro ject called for the groups to bu ild a light an d durab le cross-section o f a wing spar, using balsa wood an d glue.

T hese projects gave the students an o p p o rtu ­nity to experience w hat i t ’s like to be an engineer, b u t they also experienced m uch m ore. “They practiced being self-directed and definitely learned the roles o f the pro ject

en g in eer or the facilities engineer, and they took th e ir roles seriously. In addition to being successful in constructing a car to specs they n eed ed to learn to cooperate and work effec­tively and efficiently to accomplish their goals,” says fifth-grade teacher, N oelani Chang.

“I th ink the spar pro ject creates decision­m aking and collaboration am ong team m em bers, shows my students the n eed to th ink and plan things first before executing ,” says sixth-grade teacher, Ju n e Yam anuha.

Both projects started with classroom visits by Civil & Environm ental E ng ineering instructo r Randy Akiona. D uring those first visits he talked abou t w hat engineers do and abou t the projects the fifth and sixth graders were abou t to em bark on. Mr. A kiona also m ade several visits after to check the progress of the students.

Those visits eventually led up to the com peti­tions.

T he spar competition held on May 18th at H olm es Hall. Each spar was ju d g e d on efficiency, design, weight, and how m uch load the spars could handle , which was the ultim ate test. A fter being weighed, each spar was p laced in the testing units. Buckets were h u n g from the fuselage and sand was added slowly until the spar failed. A fter each spar failed, the buckets o f sand were w eighed to determ ine its load.

M ore than ha lf o f the wing spars he ld over ten pounds o f sand an d the w inning spar was able to ho ld over fou rteen pounds.

T he je t toy competition was held on May 20th at the University o f Haw ai‘i Cam pus C en ter Ballroom . At the je t toy com petition , each g roup could sign up for a n u m b er o f events: Distance, tim e, tim e trials, and weight.

In the distance event, each je t toy was ju d g ed on how far it could go. In the tim e event, the je t toys were tim ed to see how long each toy could go before com ing to a com plete stop.In the tim e trials, j e t toys were p itted against each o th e r in races. T h e weight event showed each toy’s muscle, as they were given weights (rolls o f 10 pennies) to carry across a certain distance.

T he w inner o f the distance event m ade their j e t toy travel 32 feet. In the tim e event, the w inner was able to get th e ir toy to travel for alm ost 21 seconds. Finally, in the weight event, the w inning je t toy was able to carry twelve rolls o f pennies.

T he whole process of designing, constructing, and testing was a learn ing experience for the students. “I th ink the spar pro ject taugh t us a lot, like how you need team w ork and work­m anship to assist a good design, an d I th ink this was a good way to teach us tha t there are a lo t o f things to be accountable for,” said sixth g rader Nicholas M attson.

It was an enjoyable experience for the students, b u t it was also great for the teachers as well. “I enjoyed the je t toy pro ject very m uch because it took the students th ro u g h the scientific process,” says fifth-grade teacher, Lauri Taguchi. “T he ch ild ren used problem -solving and tested the ir ideas. I liked th a t they were able to apply the skills th a t we have been teach ing them all year long .”
