To test how the prototype would perform at high altitudes, Penn State Abington student Lingqi Li used the cooling baths method to model the temperature of the stratosphere at minus 56 degrees Celsius (approximately minus 69 degrees Fahrenheit). After several versions of these tests, the students could identify which components would satisfy the thermal requirements of flight tests.
Researchers from the College of Information Sciences and Technology found that creating computer-supported collaborative learning environments could help online learners build community and increase the likelihood that they would remain in their academic program.
