A Great Project for Gifted Students

This from a Middle School in New Jersey, and apparently part of an eco-friendly curriculum (which I wish more schools would implement):

As in the past several years, Linda Hubschmidt's seventh grade gifted and talented class will take part in the National Engineers Week Future City Competition.

The competition challenges students to put into practice engineering solutions to ecological and fiscal concerns as they create an efficient and earth-friendly future city.

The Hopewell Crest pupils have been applying their brainpower to do just that for Espoo, a real-world city of about a quarter million people and Finland's second largest.
