Great Things are Happening at Early College High School with Integrated Technology

 

Students using probes and data loggers for science experiments. Here's what some of the students have to say:

"Using technology helped me because it made it a lot easier to record data, make charts, and research much faster than looking for everything in books."

"The data logger, and the temperature probes made our experiments easier and more accurate, because without these tools, then the results would have been mostly estimated, and it could have produced incorrect results. It also made things faster, and less complicated which gave us more class time."

"The technology we used was a big help because it gave us more accurate results and it took a shorter time to use the technology than it would have to have done it the old way."

 

"The technology that my group used helped us a lot. We got things done a lot faster than if we had to do everything by hand. The ph meters helped a great deal because if we did not have them we would have to measure using the ph strips. It would have taken a long time and it could have not been as accurate as the meters."
