Entire science department considering more technology!

On Monday during our department meeting, the entire department began a discussion of how we should implement more appropriate technology to improve student learning. Every member of the department is excited about ways that technology can positively influence students. What a great start as we begin the new year. We are now looking for ways to demonstrate to our administrators that what we are doing is helping students learn science better.

They have some of the best science projects, science software, and help for teachers. They also focus on secondary school, so that's a bonus.
