RE: Science and education
What does model aircraft have to do with education and science?
Our state's (and several other's) vocational teachers have to "align" their curriculum to state and national standards in Language, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.
Now where does an Auto Mechanic or Cosmetology teacher have that in their lessons?
Everywhere. I won't get into details but the same thing can occur in model aviation.
Teaching someone to read instructions for installing a BL ESC for example involves Language, Math and Science.
If you are interested look at the [link=http://www.corestandards.org/the-standards]national standards[/link] and as you read them you will hopefully be saying "I/we teach that".
