ACS middle school students have been busy working on various research projects from studying skeletal systems in the sixth grade, to learning the process of mitosis and meiosis in grade seven, and finally studying the history of the periodic table. You might ask why this is so special, because that is normal science curriculum material. It is special because the science classes have been doing independent studies using recently purchased Apple I Pads.

Students were given their real world question to explore and find answers to make a quick report on their findings. Some created posters to share their information.  Others completed study guides for test prep. The students enjoyed the learning process and are looking forward to continued work using our new technology.
