Our Outcomes

Planting Science provides an excellent opportunity for my 6th - 8th grade students to collaborate and use the investigative process. If given this opportunity, students from DeWitt Middle School will experiences not only a hands-on inquiry based project but they will also improve on their communication skills by working with a team, sharing their progress with a scientist and presenting their results. In Agronomy Feeds the World, I hope that my students will gain a better understanding of where their food comes from, what essential nutrients plants need to grow and why soil health is important. In my course, Science Outdoors, I am seeking to encourage science education through real-world problems. Feeding the world definitely qualifies!
