The Canon PowerShot ELPH 180 Digital Cameras that we are asking for will extend the learning day, our project is designed for students to deepen their understanding of STEM concepts. Our specific mission is to promote 21st century thinking skills through direct involvement with students and their families. The resources purchased in this grant will enable students to learn engineering and scientific practices through direct engagement in these processes. The content learned in these units will directly align with current Next Generation Science Standards, while giving students the opportunity to collaborate with peers in the problem solving process. For example, our students will be using their knowledge of light, refraction and reflection to capture unusual perspectives of nature and our community. These cameras will provide our students with opportunities to expand their thinking and connections to the world around them. Our program engages students with reality based programming, opportunities to explore technology, observations of nature and use their knowledge in project based learning. Our program not only increases student achievement, but it increases student engagement in school and provides opportunities for learning tracks based upon personal interest.
