FRCE provides local students with exciting learning opportunities
Fleet Readiness Center East (FRCE) FABLAB Lead Engineer Christopher Rivera, right, stands next to the FABLAB outside of Grover C. Fields Middle School while teaching sixth grade students the fundamentals of fixed wing flight. The FABLAB is a mobile makerspace equipped with tools and technology to assist in STEM-based lessons. With the help of FRCE’s engineers, the students assembled foam gliders and performed a series of tests on the center of gravity to find the best construction for optimal flight stability.
