My Students

When my students perform student-designed inquiry labs, they collect data and then analyze the data to come to conclusions. They need a laptop to connect their data collection devices, to access the Internet for research, to collaboratively analyze class data and to share their results.

My students are enthusiastic and curious high school students who are budding scientists of the next generation.

They are Biology and AP Biology students who perform scientific inquiry labs on a weekly basis followed by data collection, analysis, conclusion and discussions. My students design and execute their own student-led labs based on scientific inquiry. My students love doing science and enjoy using technology to work collaboratively during labs. We follow a rigorous fast-paced curriculum based on the new Next Generation Science Standards.

My Project

My students will use these laptops at their lab-stations to work in groups, collect data using latest data collection technology and analyze data. They will also use the laptops for background research before designing their labs and at the end to communicate their results from the lab.

Your donations will improve my students learning by giving them a chance to use technology in the classroom/lab on the same day, instead of taking the data home and analyzing it a day later.
