Week 1 Day 1

Monday

Day 1 included introduction to new teammates, faculty mentors, and support staff at UNT.  We were also given a tour of the facility in which we will be stationed the next six weeks.  Team 2, the air quality team, will be developing a wireless air quality unit that can be used in the classroom to monitor several different parameters.  The current grey wolf system is not a cost effective unit, so we will be developing a unit that will be able to monitor the same parameters, is cost effective for a science classroom, and can also function as an early detection unit.

We will look into the long term data from an air quality unit vs doing a spot check like most school districts use for air quality.  We will also investigate the feasibility of using a less expensive unit that may not be as accurate as the more expensive grey wolf unit.
