The course README file, aka 'the syllabus'. The lab safety [|contract].

The general framework for how to conduct research, especially in the mold as a citizen scientist.

Links to various science and sciencey sites.

Using Arduino in your project? You should probably read [|this].

Projects which Wildwood Research has been involved with on an ongoing basis: E-CLAW [|Safecast] Safecast Air DECO TIGER [|SHArK] DSSC Reefquest Solar Army [|BioSCAN]
