Texas Tech University and Tesla
Texas Tech University and Tesla
The Foster WIT program participated in a virtual field trip to Texas Tech University (TTU). The field trip began with a presentation from the TTU Visitor's Center. The presentation discussed the application process, scholarship opportunities, tuition, and campus life. Then, a TTU student led a virtual tour of campus; the tour included various academic buildings, dorms, and athletic complexes. After touring TTU, the Foster WIT program watched a video tour of the Tesla factory. The 2019-2020 WIT program visited the Toyota manufacturing facility in San Antonio last year, so the returning WIT members compared the Tesla factory to the Toyota manufacturing facility.

The Foster WIT members watched the Radiation Science episode from the NPI "Clean SMARTS Master Class" mini-series on February 11, 2021. The Radiation Science episode defined nuclear science vocabulary terms, explained the concepts of radiation and energy, and described the applications of radiation science, such as producing isotopes. Learning about the banana equivalent dose was the WIT members' favorite part of the virtual event!
NASA Challenge with ATOM
NASA Challenge with ATOM
The Foster High School WIT program participated in the NASA Challenge with the Briscoe Junior High ATOM program on Monday, April 5, 2021. The event included a hands-on engineering challenge. Each ATOM member worked with the WIT members to design a lunar lander using a limited amount of materials. At the end of the event, the designs were tested by dropping the lunar landers from various heights; successful lunar landers did not tip over when they hit the ground.
Overall, the ATOM and WIT members had a great time using the engineering design process to solve a problem!
