Home - Open Science School. Backyard Brains. EduCase Portable Classroom. Many areas of the world do not have access to simple educational tools needed to provide youth the tools to advance in today's technical world.
Rural areas, refugee camps and struggling nations need educational solutions which are portable and fully functional. In 2015 I conceived of this project after researching some of the real struggles experienced during the multiple refugee crisis's. In many camps there was little to no access to quality education for the youth. I wanted to build a fully functional classroom which would include computers (Raspberry Pis & Android systems), display, projectors, power source, cameras, communication systems (cellular and satellite downlink) and charging support (solar, home and auto). Over the past several months I have gathered much of the materials needed to assemble the project and have now started the assembly. To support the project I also devised a method of receiving "Outernet" internet data transmissions using a portable satellite dish. Efabrik - Le numérique au service du lien social.

Combined STM-AFM microscopies for mechanics and electronics studies at the molecular scale Figure 1: a) Piezoelectric tuning fork probe equipped with a platinum/iridium tip electrochemically etched (length of the tuning fork = 3mm). Detail: SEM micrograph of the tip apex (white bar scale = 1 micron). b) Optical image of the double preamplifier, Ultra High Vacuum compatible, and allowing to treat the STM and AFM signals simultaneously. Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) allows to image the surface distribution of the atoms of a conductive sample. This new scanning probe microscope allows to obtain simultaneously different information maps, depending of the signal used for the distance regulation between the tip and the surface.
The core of this scanning probe microscope is a quartz piezoelectric tuning fork, kept in oscillation at its resonance frequency, where a platinum/iridium tip (Figure 1a)), with apex radius below of 100 nm, is fixed.

CIRUISEF Séminaire Armoire de TP de Physique 9 au 20 janvier 2012 à la Faculté des sciences et Technologies de l’université Paris-Est Créteil Cette action est la réponse à un constat fait par les Doyens des Facultés de Sciences et Technologie de l’espace francophone dans le cadre de leur Conférence Internationale (CIRUISEF) : la dégradation voire l’absence de Travaux Pratiques expérimentaux (TP) en enseignement de Physique au niveau licence et la non acquisition voire la perte de savoir faire des jeunes enseignants-chercheurs dans les facultés de beaucoup de pays francophones.

Grenoble et CRI Paris) Les smartphones sondent en permanence le monde autour de nous pour nos usages personnels quotidiens.
Et s’ils nous servaient dans nos apprentissages ? Voir le teaser: En les utilisant comme des laboratoires de poche avec capteurs intégrés, le MOOC "Smartphone Pocketlab" explore scientifiquement les gestes et les mouvements qui sont à la base du transport, du sport, de la pratique artistique... Pour le suivre, il faut avoir un smartphone, un ordinateur portable et... c’est tout. Pour la première fois, ce MOOC s’appuie sur le Do It Yourself (DIY) « à la maison ». Nul besoin de disposer d’un laboratoire de physique, avec un matériel coûteux et inaccessible, pour faire de la science et analyser efficacement les données collectées : avec un simple smartphone et votre ordinateur portable, votre « labo mobile », vous pouvez faire tout cela chez vous et partager ensuite sur le forum du MOOC vos expériences et vos idées.
Pour réaliser les expériences, aucun matériel supplémentaire n’est requis.
