 S is for SCIENCE PAGE

The first summer camp experience for students is entitled "Fun With Science" and fun it is.  The students are instructed in the scientific method via the three P's - problem posing, problem probing and persuasion.  During the week, groups of students work together investigating different ways of solving a given problem.  This past summer, students were challenged by the mysterious "healing" egg that fell from the sky in the year 1200 AD and cured the natives of a dreaded disease that had befallen them.

 

Intrigue and mystery surround the students the second summer as they learn how forensic science plays a vital role in determining whodunnit.

Anatomy is the topic for third year students.  During this camp, students work with health care professionals and props to learn about various ailments.  They investigate how these illnesses can effect humans as well as what can be done medically for persons suffering from these diseases.
