Cyndi has been reading a lot of Harvard Business School case studies (for my Technology Strategy class), researching robotic assisted surgery (for both Technology Strategy and Disruptive Innovation), and trying to remember how to do calculus for Engineering Risk Benefit Analysis (ERBA).  It’s probably more than you want to know, but here is part of what I worked on Tuesday night for ERBA:

The research on robotic assisted surgery has been more interesting.  I’m learning a whole bunch of -ology and -otomy medical terms in the process.  The most fun find was the video on youtube  – folding an origami crane with the da Vinci robotic surgery system.  (http://twww.youtube.com/watch?v=x9Bjs99A0k0)  I managed to get project teams in 2 different classes to work on the same subject area.  That’s nice because I only have to do the general research once.  Every little bit counts!
