Mission of the project
Mission of the project
This website is designed to support 8th grade science teachers in developing curricular ideas for AR State Education Standards.
This website, its contents, and the hardware kit would not have been possible without the generous funding from SPIE. We thank SPIE for providing the grant funding for this project. Additional support has been provided by Arkansas Tech University (ATU). We also want to provide thanks to ATU.
