Hands-on Education

Who knew that, for many years, everyone taking physics from Mr. Robert Williams at Grove School was required to build a working electric motor? There was much collaboration and some of the motors were Rube Goldberg affairs, but on the appointed day, they usually all ran. Around 1978, Mr. Williams dusted off a motor submitted by Jack Nichols 20 years earlier and ran it for his class. Source - Jack Nichols. Submitted by Ray Harding (mine ran on the test day)
