Description and purpose of grant:

How do you engage learners? Let them do real science!! 

In environmental science getting learners outside collecting real data and thinking about how their interactions impact ecosystems is the key to making sure they are informed and active citizens. It is also really fun!!  The tools we are requesting will allow learners to collect data in the field and in the lab when investigating science concepts related to environmental issues.


Implementation process

The items requested will be used for the following activities for many years impacting 400-500 learners every year.

  1. Water Quality Studies (IBESS, APES, IB BIO) 
  2. Primary productivity/Photosynthesis (IBESS, APES, IB BIO)
  3. Mesocosms/EcoColums (IBESS, APES, IB BIO)
  4. Plant Studies (IBESS, APES, IB BIO)
  5. Sustainability projects

Items you plan to purchase with grant money

  1. Pasco wireless probes for data collection in the field and classroom(purchasing (one set of 8 for each sensor to be shared with AP Environmental Science, IB Environmental Systems and Societies and IB Biology)
    • Turbidity & Colorimeter Sensor- use will water quality, photosynthesis, and enzyme activity studies
    • Optical Dissolved Oxygen Sensor- used in water quality, photosynthesis, and productivity studies
  2. LED Stack and Grow Plant Center (Purchase 3- one per teacher classroom)

 


In the event my grant is not fully funded, this is minimum amount I would need to get started on this project:  $6000
