Educational Program

     For the academic community, our expanded educational series will offer native 3D files and teaching aids.**   Project-based teaching has been used at many schools as a way of teaching a number of skills simultaneously through participation in specially-designed projects - projects that stimulate students' enthusiasm and creativity and guide them through learning experiences. We are proud to announce that the XR3 Hybrid is the centerpiece of the alternative energy and physics program at Phoenix Bioscience High School.   And using our original Ground Hugger XR2 plans as a basis, students at Prince Alfred College in South Austrialia went on to win in category the 2001 Australian World Solar Cycle Challenge.  The solar assist feature was developed by students as part of their learning experience.  Projects like these provide students with invaluable learning experiences for a variety of engineering, product development, project management and funding skills.  These experiences, along with those of others in the academic community, have served as a model for the entire educational series of products that are now under development.
