Pathways to Scale: From Prototyping to System Change
Explore the necessary conditions and models for taking innovative solutions to scale, with the ultimate objective of systemic change. Panel members will focus on sustainable transport systems and explore how this sector can serve as a model for scaling and engaging multiple stakeholders. Panel members will map their initiatives against a 5-stage model of innovation, from early prospecting, through prototyping and start-up enterprises, to networked solutions and, ultimately, system change.

Colonial Weapons System
As important as the cannon is the vehicle to carry it: a two-wheeled cart that transports, supports, and stores the weapon and its accoutrements. Wheelwright John Boag has the task of construction.

1. Taste sensing is related to smell. Not all tastes have odors, however. In contrast to smell, we only have 5 primary tastes we detect through taste buds located on distinct areas of the tongue. The five primary tastes are sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami.
2. Taste buds contain about 150 cells with microv

Carbon Dioxide Uptake in Plants: A Computer-Aided Experimental System
This exercise introduces students to concepts of photosynthesis at the whole organism level and to computer utilization in biology. Changes in carbon dioxide concentration are measured in environmental chambers using gas analyzers connected to computers. Carbon dioxide changes are graphed in real time as the plants take up CO2. Over a short time, sunflower seedlings show dramatic changes in CO2 uptake when light intensity is altered or color filters are used. Comparison of the resulting graphs w
Bacterial Virus T4: A Simple Biological System to Introduce Genetic Mapping in a Biology Laboratory
Used in conjunction with lecture material to illustrate genetic mapping.
An Experimental System to Study Phagocytosis
A laboratory exercise using simple technique of feeding ink to protozoan, Tetrahymena, to observe and quantitate phagocytosis in the protozoan. It also introduces students to the microscope and inquiry-based laboratory investigations
Cognition and the Immune System: Mind/Body Interaction Looks at mind/body interactions and their relationships to disease and the immune system.
A Holistic Approach to Teaching a Laboratory, Using Sea Urchin Development as an Example System
This exercise uses brainstorming, writing, and oral presentation techniques within the framework of a laboratory to illustrate the basic principles of early development. In groups, students learn how to identify a good model system (the sea urchin), isolate its gametes, mix some gametes from each sex, and study the ensuing processes of fertilization and development. After being introduced to the basic techniques, student groups design their own experimental approaches to further analyze these pr
Auburn University / Auburn City Schools Professional Development System Partnership
The Auburn City Schools/Auburn University Professional Development System is a collaborative partnership that encourages collaboration among educators, students, future classroom teachers, parents and other community stakeholders. The PDS collaboration now exists as a standard-bearer for partnerships between universities and local school systems. The Holmes Partnership, a consortium of more than 100 research universities, has honored Auburns PDS with its 2010 Nancy Zimpher Award for Best Partner
System Solver
Highlight how symbolic operations on a system of linear equations do (or do not) change the graphic or tabular representations of the system.
Note that the System Solver is a tool intended to illustrate the rationale behind the symbolic operations used to solve systems of linear equations, and not a way to learn what procedures to follow.
