My Project

My Chemistry/Physics students are very eager to learn with open-minds. They learn best with hands-on laboratory activities. As they work in the laboratory while using these hot plates, they gain a deeper understanding of the content being taught. These hot plates will enable my students to heat and stir chemicals at the same time.

The lab techniques they learn in high school will carry over to college.

University laboratories often use this same type of equipment. The experience gained in the high school laboratory is crucial to building the necessary skills for any lab at their chosen post secondary institutions.
