Does anyone have any ideas on what method to use in approaching central office to secure new equipment or software for your lab? I gathered quotes from venders on computer memory upgrades and SolidWorks engineering modeling software, which is state of the art, but designed for high school students. This information was submitted to central office in August 2006. Central office replied “this is good information; we will consider this”. That was the last I heard about the equipment. My concern is that I have 24 students going to my third level mechanical and electrical system class, but I do not have any courseware for the class.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions on this matter, please blog. Help! Help!
I think that this is an internal county policy to the fact that when there money already invested with a particular vendor; even though you may come up with something you really like and that you it will enhance your program; they just won't do anything. I have been there before. Keep trying. Good luck.
