As part of the class, students use this data to make decisions about how to best care for their plants over the course of the semester, in the same way that data is tracked and care of the plants is modified in a greenhouse.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>\n<p><figure id=\"20529\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20529\" src=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/citl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/266\/2023\/03\/PSE110_Hackerspace.jpg\" alt=\"visual of soil sensor technology\" width=\"600\" height=\"330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/citl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/266\/2023\/03\/PSE110_Hackerspace.jpg 600w, https:\/\/umaine.edu\/citl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/266\/2023\/03\/PSE110_Hackerspace-105x58.jpg 105w, https:\/\/umaine.edu\/citl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/266\/2023\/03\/PSE110_Hackerspace-317x174.jpg 317w, https:\/\/umaine.edu\/citl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/266\/2023\/03\/PSE110_Hackerspace-423x233.jpg 423w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 85vw, (max-width: 768px) 67vw, (max-width: 1024px) 62vw,600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Soil monitoring with Rasberry Pi<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Wearable technology<\/strong> offers new and unique ways for people to interact with computers.
