 Previous: CNCS Emergency Communication Training Grant News |  Next: FCC Affirms Fine for Unlicensed Operation on Amateur Frequency |
February 10, 2005 -- Two ARRL Amateur Radio Education and
Technology Program (ETP)
participating schools were the Liberal Arts and Science Academy of Austin at
Lyndon Baines Johnson High School (LBJ) in Austin, Texas, and Orono Middle School
in Orono, Maine. Lead teachers Ronny Risinger, KC5EES, at LBJ, and Richard
Glueck, N1MDZ, at Orono say they'll use the grant funds to purchase laptop
computers suitable for field work and other applications. ARRL ETP Coordinator
Mark Spencer, WA8SME, says he hopes more Big Project schools will consider
taking advantage of the Te@ch awards and other grant programs. The list
of all schools receiving Te@ch grants is available on the Best Buy Web site.
The ETP reaches more than 3600 students, exposing them to a collective total of
some 184,000 hours of involvement in "wireless technology literacy."
The League invites contributions to the ARRL Education and Technology Program
via its secure donation
Web site.
