Grant: Winning Proposal for Electric Bicycle Engineering Project

This is a winning grant proposal to purchase an electric bicycle to use in the classroom for science and alternative energy activities. A state electrical cooperation awarded $1499.00 for this grant in 2005. This proposal can be customized to compensate for the variations in prices of electric bicycles in your area. The electric bicycle engineering project will be a great addition to your science or technology classroom. With increased awareness of gasoline prices and the growing need for conservation and alternative energy sources, electricity is a viable option for local transportation. The needs are even greater for our students to gain the insight and understanding of the importance of alternative energy for the future. The electric bicycle STEM project is an extremely fun, exciting, educational and unforgettable experience for the students.
