We all spend a lot of our daily time in the room - we should enjoy it and feel comfortable.

Students created memories with their art work. I reminded them of the many keepsakes I have from high school.

I am so appreciative of what you have done to build and support expression with this project. \r\n\r\nDuring this project, students dug deep into our text to capture profound excerpts that resonated with them. They then translated those powerful words into visual masterpieces using the new supplies. Watching them find their unique voices and confidently express their interpretations of the text through paint was an incredibly moving classroom moment. Your generosity has truly built and supported a safe space for authentic creative expression and critical thinking.\r\n\r\nThis project has not only deepened their connection to the text but has also given them a physical piece of work they can carry with them for years to come.

While many of us use tablets for scrolling through news or watching videos at home, in our classroom, these devices have been transformed into powerful scientific instruments.\r\n\r\nIn the past, our students were often tethered to bulky Chromebooks. With these tablets, the learning has become mobile and interactive.\r\n\r\nStudents used the tablets as the \"brains\" of custom-built microscopes they engineered themselves. By loading their own custom machine learning models onto the tablets, they moved beyond just looking at slides—they began teaching the technology how to identify specific plant diseases. This process forced them to think like both biologists and data scientists, refining their designs in real-time as they tested samples.\r\n\r\nThe \"cool factor\" here cannot be overstated. There is a specific kind of magic that happens when a student:\r\n\r\nBuilds a physical microscope.\r\n\r\nViews a microscopic sample on a high-definition screen.\r\n\r\nWatches their own AI model analyze that sample to provide a diagnosis.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for them was the instant feedback. Instead of waiting days for results or a grade, the tablets allowed them to see immediately if their model was accurate, prompting them to troubleshoot and improve their work on the spot.","fullyFundedDate":1767992966935,"projectUrl":"project/ai-enabled-microscopy/9987269/","projectTitle":"AI Enabled Microscopy","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Kniesly","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7640997"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_33707","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2227,"numTeachers":145,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":12,"percentBlack":18,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":35,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":5,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":84.1,"schoolId":33707,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Edison High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Edison High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/fairfax-county-public-schools/edison-high-school/33707"}
