Smart Power Outlet
With an ever-increasing demand on the electrical grid and an increase in electrical consumer goods per household, effective power management and monitoring for home users is a must. The objective of this project is to create a consumer outlet and companion phone application. The power outlet will measure power draw on each socket and report these measurements via an embedded system, wirelessly, to the application. The application will then allow for setting custom power draws at which an individual socket will switch off if exceeded and will display how much a given outlet or individual socket is costing per unit time at current power/electrical rates. The application will also allow for switching on or off any sockets akin to a smart home device and labeling each outlet and socket within the application. The application will enable sending push notifications, if a dangerous or undesirable power draw/current is reached. These features will enable consumers to be more aware of the electricity they are consuming and its associated cost

Terevaka Archaeological Outreach (TAO) 2015 field report: Engineering and renewable energy
For the past twelve years, Terevaka Archaeological
Outreach (TAO) has offered educational programs for
young people in the Rapa Nui community â focusing
on the study and conservation of cultural resources.
In 2014, local community leaders suggested that in
addition to the successful archaeological outreach
program, the island would benefit from an educational
program that introduced young people to engineering
and technology. During the ensuing ten months, we
developed a hands-on engineering curriculum to be
implemented in Spanish for a small group of high
school students participating in the TAO 2015 program
Terevaka Archaeological Outreach (TAO) 2015 field report: Archaeology, conservation, and toponymy
Terevaka Archaeological Outreach (TAO) is a volunteer
program that has provided educational opportunities
for youths local to the Rapa Nui community since
2003. The long-term goals of TAO are: (1) to offer
experiential learning opportunities specific to
cultural and natural resources that surround the local
community; (2) to promote awareness and expertise in
conservation measures and sustainable development;
and (3) to document and study both cultural and natural
phenomena of the past today.
TAO has now provided educational opportunities
to approximately 115 local high school students. Our
alumni have gained inspiration to complete university
degrees in fields such as archaeology, conservation,
history, and cultural anthropology. Several of these
students now hold official positions in governmental,
private, and educational organizations on the island
that will be of critical importance in the islandâs near
and distant futur
