New Jr. Medical School Website
New Jr. Medical School Website
We have created a special Jr. Medical School Website that contains all of the reading assignments that you will need to earn the 1,000 reading points for graduation.Read each passage and then send a short paragraph explaining how you might use the information in the future. If the article cannot benefit you, please report on that. You need the paragraph in order to receive full credit.

Kid's Talk Science Journalist
Super School University, Jr. Medical School Robotics JournalismThe Kid's Talk Radio Science Show will being featuring a series of science projects working with national high school robotic teams from across the nation.
We have plans to tie some of our action research in Robotics to our Jr. Medical School programs in California and Mississippi. We will keep you posted about all of the new and exciting projects that we have on the horizon.
Robotics is the science and technology of robots, their design, manufacture, and application. [Robotics requires a working knowledge of electronics, mechanics and software, and is usually accompanied by a large working knowledge of many subjects. A person working in the field is a roboticist.
The structure of a robot is usually mostly mechanical and can be called a kinematic chain (its functionality being similar to the skeleton of the human body). The chain is formed of links (its bones), actuators (its muscles) and joints, which can allow one or more degrees of freedom. Most contemporary robots use open serial chains in which each link connects the one before to the one after it. These robots are called serial robots and often resemble the human arm. Some robots, such as the Stewart platform, use closed parallel kinematic chains. Other structures, such as those that mimic the mechanical structure of humans, various animals and insects, are comparatively rare. However, the development and use of such structures in robots is an active area of research (e.g. biomechanics). Robots used as manipulators have an end effector mounted on the last link. This end effector can be anything from a welding device to a mechanical hand used to manipulate the environment. ISO 10248 defines a robotic application on the industrial field.

High Motivational Science Projects
High Motivational Science Projects
Bob Barboza's Jr. Medical School students are from Mississippi. Bob lives in California. Bob teachers a Jr. Medical School course in space medicine and technology. Doug is an explorer. He loves going to places like Antarctica and the magnetic North Pole. Now he wants to go to the Amazon Jungle.Every time Doug Stoup goes on an expedition, Bob Barboza and his students follow him and talk to him wherever he goes. We monitor his medial conditions and follow his virtual medial chart. We use our Kid's Talk Radio equipment and Jamie at PNN makes sure that we don't loose our connection. We publish all of our news reports on PNN, Kid's Talk Radio, and Teen TV.
Jr. Medical School and Kid's Talk Radio brings kids the news that they can use. We are made up of teachers that love to teach and students that love to learn.
