We want to thank everyone for participating in our challenge this year. Leading this initiative was a great experience and we hope that everyone enjoyed it just as much as us. Thank you for all the wonderful feedback. We will use it to improve future challenges.
As mentioned previously, we will be repeating this initiative again and rebranding as the MFC Olympics in the next school year. Our goal is to have at least 200 students participate and also involve other schools. Over the past few weeks, we are very excited that two schools have confirmed their participation in the challenge next year. In addition, there was keen interest from three other schools in joining the challenge.
We just completed an experiment with Dr. Marc Strous from the University of Calgary. As expected, we discovered that there are electrogenic bacteria in the mud from Soda Lake in British Columbia.
In June, we took short videos of most of the students with the blinking MFC. We have created a collage using these videos. Video Link
This will be the last blog post until the start of the new school year. We hope everyone has a good summer and is ready for the next challenge!
