That depends a littel bit on the type of your project.

For example: I can't see an obvious reason to use GPS in an egg cooking 
timer oproject...

Unless he is trying to find the real reason the chicken crossed the
street...  The path can be traced using a GPS...

He might also be trying to find out where students go instead of doing 
their own homework for class projects.

I've had a question for some time. Not to get down on people from India,
but it appears to me that at least about 90% of these messages asking for
help originate from there. They mostly appear to be asking for help on
homework projects, although I couldn't swear to that.

Why aren't there so many e-mails asking for help on this and that coming
from the USA, France, Russia, Australia, etc. etc.? I'm really curious
what inspires these. Is it the way the educational system is set up there?
Is is some sort of cultural thing?

Inquiring minds would like to know!

------------------------------------

Apparently, Indian schools and colleges go in for a lot of rote learning. 
When students have to actually think for themselves they are completely 
lost.

I have several GPS engines and all the ones I have put out a 10 kHz signal 
and a 1 pps pulse.  It's become very popular among some areas of the 
amateur radio community to use the 1 pps pulse to phase-lock or 
frequency-lock a 10 MHz source so it is extremely accurate. (10E-9 or so)

But you could use the 1 pps pulses to make a very accurate egg timer!

How a GPS is used also depends on the GPS engine. Some have
ASCII serial data accessed through a UART. Some have USB.
Some don't have any.

Its your choice.

Some schools are strong on theory and very weak on
application.
The student is expected to choose a "project" (often
without knowledge
of the possible, what is hard and what is easy, etc) and
use that to learn
about application of theory.

I had a student in Junior Circuits Lab (late '60s) from the
middle east who had studied in the middle east for his
first two college years. He had, believe, gone to one of
the "American Universities". He knew theory well, but had
no concept of cause and effect. He could not tell you what
happened in a simple transtor circuit or even a diode, for
that matter, but could quote h-parameter relationships. Not
sure that this is the issue here, but I'd bet its related.
