Description
At a regional governor's school, attendance in the last few weeks of the year can be sporadic due to AP and other testing at the student's base schools. In response, at the Central Virginia Governor's School for Science and Technology, we developed a 12 day capstone project where students work in small groups to build, mathematically model, and test a small rocket launched with a C11-3 motor. This presentation will summarize the project, lessons learned, future plans and possible extensions.
