Re: paper: Portable Inspiration Facelift
Just updated the white paper info and uploaded files for Portable Inspiration. The added file is for a gifted 11th Grade Unit and here's the latest info on where the package has been and how it's been used:

-With Autistic Support Students at LMHS as an ongoing program (one of our founding students heads this as his Eagle Scout project)
-As a part of guest unit with 11th grade gifted students entitled "Robotics, Society,Future" (this file is now attached, too!)
-To expose young students to robotics an technology at local robotics competitions and cub scout pack meetings
-As a part of elementary school workshops in grades K,1, and 2. Thus far our students have run workshops at three elementary schools (in and out of district) with plans to attend more this year.

Obviously the greatest strengths of this package lie in the exciting hands-on experience and its flexibility.
