ALI Labs project featured in Cornell Chronicle
The third course in the three-course ALI lab sequence was recently featured in the Cornell Chronicle. Great comments from students and faculty about the experience students had designing and carrying out their own experiments. My favorite: "I definitely made more friends because we had to collaborate."
