Many people view science as a remote field performed by distant
professionals with secret laboratories and expensive tools. Schools
and even many college courses focus on memorization of facts and
information that science has brought to the world, rather than the
true essence of science: the scientific process. The truth is that
science can be applied to every aspect of our daily lives. In this
class, we’ll use everyday materials to investigate, gather, and
analyze information about the world around us. Each day, students
will work on hands-on projects designed to deepen their
understanding of science and create a lifelong habit of inquiry.
Students get to take home their inventions at the end of each class.
