Students will be developing, constructing, and evaluating their educational knowledge of efficient growing techniques. This aquaponic kit will allow students to visualize and investigate a successful growing system. However, this system is only one way of many to grow hydro- or aqua-ponically. The requested aquaponic system will inspire students to construct their own hydroponic or aquaponic system in order to build their knowledge of growing food for the future. Students will be developing their own Agriscience Fair experiments, participating in a project-based learning assignment, and growing their knowledge of the future of farming. The opportunity for students to involve the aquaponic system in the classroom and FFA is only limited to the students' imaginations and determination to continue learning and refining their created systems. This aquaponic kit will grow plants that will be nutritionally beneficial to the students and allow them to taste foods they may not have had any opportunity to enjoy. Feeding the ever growing population will be a task faced by the upcoming generations. Aquaponics is one way for students to experience non-traditional farming techniques that may be the future of farming.
