Besides being awesome and self-motivated to build a one-off car every year, my students also are top-notch students.
They take part in building a race car from scratch every year on their own time.
The students that take part in the adventurous build meet in my classroom 3 days a week during their own lunches to complete the race car! That alone should tell you how dedicated these students are to do something great.
My Project
Kids of today! What’s wrong with them? They wear their pants so low that you can see their underwear! All they do is play video games, listen to music on those darn MP3 players, or they’re texting on a cell phone. None of them could change the oil on their parent’s car let only build one. Sound familiar? Well, don’t tell that to the students involved in Formula High School. Formula High School is the idea of Mike Besel and Jeremie Meyer, high school Technology & Engineering instructors from Wisconsin. These two instructors wanted to develop a program where teams of students would build a replica race vehicle in 8 months and then test it at the track.
