Technology for Science Inquiry
UCLA Science Project




Participants work with experienced facilitators to become familiar with current hardware and software, see samples of student work using technology, and use the technology themselves to carry out and share an exploration of the city habitat.

Participants will implement student projects during the following year, network with their colleagues, and share their successes with other UCLA Science Project associates.
