  2. What is the GO3 Project? A science and engineering project for high schools and middle schools where students build and operate an ozone monitoring station and share their data with students around the world.

  3. Goals • Provide an exciting research experience for high school students • Increase awareness of environmental concerns such as air pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion and global warming • Provide the first global database for ground-level ozone • Teach students important concepts such as chemical measurement methods, instrumentation, calibration, data acquisition using computers, data quality, statistics, data analysis and graphing, posting of data to the web, the chemistry of air pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion and global climate change

  4. Goals • Encourage more students to attend college with majors in science, math and engineering • Increase the representation of minorities and women in the science and engineering professions
