EPA Educational Tool Inspires MIT Team to Develop DIY Air Sensor Kit for Hawai‘i Educators
June 8, 2020 (EPA.gov)–Educators at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) drew on an EPA educational tool to create a new version of a particle meter to help teachers in Hawai‘i teach students about air quality and engineering. The MIT sensor design encourages hands-on learning at a time when more U.S. schools are embracing “makerspaces,” areas where students can explore and create using materials from art supplies to electronics.
