After I read the recent article on the JMS Energy Experts, one of four students/robotics team, I went to Google and searched on the words Power Puzzle Challenge, and found Two Million Hits. When I typed the same words as an exact phrase, I got the number down to 663...
I then did a video search on the same words and found 39 videos; when I put the same words in quotes and added the words: Lego Robotics, the final result was a single nine minute video, posted by a man in Brazil. I am reposting the video here for anyone who wants to see what a global effort is being made by a single company to promote Energy Education...Kudos to the LEGO Company and to the coaches and students at JMS for all their hard work!
REPower Education, which was also the Kern Energy Education Partnership would like to see an after-school program for video journalists, and perhaps there are companies that support the video production that we can ask for their sponsorship, such as Google? Any thoughts from the readers on this idea would be appreciated.

Would the editorial team be so kind as to publish the photo of the video link? I may be a viral advocate of video challenge education, but there are some holes in my armor, because they still don't teach these basics to adults in Tehachapi...
Is there any place in kern county that has adult education for video production? It could be useful to have adults learning more than the kids...?
Just an idea.
