*'''Greenshed Wall #1''': (3 people) Work with a team to develop and apply natural building material to one wall of the greenshed and present your findings to CCAT via an Appropedia page.
 
*'''Greenshed Wall #2''': (3 people) Work with a team to develop and apply natural building material to one wall of the greenshed and present your findings to CCAT via an Appropedia page.
 
*'''Greenshed Wall #3''': (3 people) Work with a team to develop and apply natural building material to one wall of the greenshed and present your findings to CCAT via an Appropedia page.
 
*'''Remediation Zone''': (2 people) This project focuses on CCATs North-Eastern Slope. Different aspects of the project include researching and planting a combination of beneficial and aesthetic bushes, flowers, and shrubs in order to stabilize the slope as well as attract helpful insects such as butterfly's. Students come up with innovative ways to secure gravel from running down the slope (baffles or steps) while beautifying the area.
 
*'''Appropriate Technology Kids Zone''' (2 people) The new downstairs of the CCAT building is a prime place for interpretive and interactive exhibits, especially for kids! This project will research and create an interactive and educational display or toy (found at such places like the S.F Exploratorium or Eureka Discovery Museum). Past and potential projects have created hand generated musical instruments, mini-bicycle powered street lights, old fashioned water wheels that generate power for lights, recycled 'trash instruments'  and wind power. Strong emphasis must be placed on durability and safety being that kids are rough and rugged!
