March 2016 Theme: Biomimicry - Borrowing Nature's Designs
Part 1:Better Solar through Natural Inspirations
We'll discover how living organisms will mimic each other in order to survive, and humans mimic nature to be more effective in our daily lives. Students will delve into the world of solar power and examine how using the design of the sunflower and mimicking a fly's eye can help us to more efficiently gather solar energy.
