I am the sponsor of a group of students who want to develop a technological project about alternative biomass fuels. Our project is part of a competition sponsored by UCF, entitled ISTF. (http://istf.ucf.edu) The Internet Science and Technology Fair (ISTF) is a real world science program designed to encourage teams of middle and high school students and their teachers to explore Internet information resources and collaborate via e-mail with scientists and engineers. Together, they develop Project Homepages which focus on National Critical Technologies vital to our nations economy and security.
We chose Environmental Quality as our National Critical Technology Standard (http://istf.ucf.edu/How/Step by Step Guide/Step2/) in the technological area of 'pollution,' the sub-area of 'waste management' specifically biomass fuels. In addition to conducting background research, we are required to develop a technological advancement (http://istf.ucf.edu/How/Step by Step Guide/Step4/High School/) that will help to promote advances in our chosen area.
Please view our education page from our first place project last year, Turtle Lights, http://mainland.cctt.org/istf . Since we are including the Boston Harbor, Deer Island events in our web site, we would like to attach the picture of your giant egg digesters from your web site.
We request for permission to use this picture on our web site.
The deadline for the project is tomorrow (Feb. 29th) so a quick response, either positive or negative, would be appreciated (even if the deadline is passed when you are reading this e-mail).
Thank-you for your help, Cathy Colwell
