N2 - Bench-scale shake-table lab stations provide a flexible tool on which to base educational excercise for students at all levels. Hands-on experiments and demostration provide tangible evidence of the dynamic behavior of structures, which improves student understanding and awareness. Training in the use of sensors is also an essential component of such exercise. NEES cyberinfrastructure tools, originally developed for advancing research efforts, are being adopted for educational use. Through a partnership with NEES, UCIST is extending its reach to students across the United States and potentially around the world.
