What is ASU/NASA Space Grant? Watch this video to find out.
ASU/NASA Space Grant is led by Dr. Thomas Sharp, Professor, School of Earth and Space Exploration. Space Grant supports graduate and undergraduate students in a variety of disciplines to further their educational experiences in science, engineering research, and informal education programs. Space Grant consortia have been established in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. See more videos on YouTube. |
Blind Student Creates Adaptive Learning Tools for Visually ImpairedThe State Press | Sept 10, 2012 Molecular biosciences and biotechnology senior [and Space Grant Intern] Ashleigh Gonzales lost her eyesight as a 13-year-old. A lack of tools for visually impaired science students threw up obstacles in her academic life. Gonzales inspired the creation of 3-D tactile boards in a program called 3-D IMAGINE, which is used to help visually impaired students learn material without the help of a lab aide. http://www.statepress.com/2012/09/10/blind-student-creates-3-d-picture-boards-for-visually-impaired/ Story by Brooke Lawson |

Undergraduate Researcher's Work Destined for the DeepASU News | Apr 26, 2011 Undergraduate researcher Colin Ho is helping to design a miniature submarine that will be used to explore sub-glacial lakes in Antarctica. Ho is pursing dual degrees in mechanical engineering and in earth and space exploration. In summer 2010, Ho interned at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory where he worked with Arizona State University associate professor Albert Behar and other students to develop the initial design for the submarine. Ho now works in Behar's lab at ASU where he continues to work on the submarine. This video was produced and edited by Walter Cronkite student, Laura Palmisano, a videographer/editor in the Office of Knowledge Enterprise Development. |
