Cody Moncrief at the SERMACS Chemistry Conference in AtlantaGIFT Teacher Publishes, Presents, and Patents Summer GIFT/Valdosta State University Research Work

Through the Georgia Internship Fellowship for Teachers (GIFT), a program designed to place teachers in real world STEM internships, Cody Moncrief, a Valdosta Middle School teacher worked with remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to explore bodies of water and collect samples for studying. Having interned with Dr. Tom Manning, a Valdosta State University Chemistry professor the past two summers, Moncrief and Manning developed a way to explore the ocean floor with an environmentally green and cost effective system.  Filled with water, the ROV system sinks to the ocean floor, collects a sample, has a chemical reaction releasing hydrogen gas, and then floats back to the surface.
