They peted with 37 other schools across the country. The students qualified for the national petition by winning a regional petition on Jan. 17 in Columbus. By winning the national event, the students earned an allexpenses paid trip to Space Camp in Huntsville, Ala., according to a Bexley school district news report.Future City aims to stir (激發(fā)) interest in science, technology, engineering and math among young people. Bexley team members were Tom Krajnak, Abby Sharp, Wyatt Peery, Elizabeth Maher, Aaron Hutchinson and Truman Haycock. They work in teams under the guidance of a teacher, Margaret Englehardt, and a volunteer engineer, Mark Sherman, design and build a city of tomorrow. Mayor John Brennan presented the students during a recent Bexley City Council meeting. Each team in the Future City petition plans its city using Sim City software and creates a model to show a physical representation of one section of the city. Team members must write both an essay about the yearly theme and an abstract about their city. They also must make a presentation to judges.Focusing on ecoresponsibility, the Bexley team built “NovoMondum,” an Icelandic city in the year 2171. Krajnak said the team’s project included a new water system for each resident unit and a 500word essay on using bacteria to purify water. “We used our essay and abstract (摘要) to build a model,” he said. “It was hard to organize which building would go where, what each building does and how to make it look good.”Englehardt said her students did a good job answering impromptu (即席) questions during the regional petition. “They can think on their feet,” she said.
