Lawton Public School District

Lawton Public School District in Oklahoma was awarded a DoDEA grant to undertake an inquiry-based science project called "Science Quest" to benefit their students who are connected to the Fort Sill Army installation. Through the project, Lawton has been able to set up fully equipped inquiry science labs for their students, incorporate cutting edge technology into the curriculum, execute enriching science field trips, and implement professional development for teachers in inquiry-based science, along with many other programs.

The videos and slideshows below highlight some of these programs and the impact that they have had on the students and teachers.

In Video 1, students are engaged in various inquiry-based activities in the science classroom. Some activities include determining density of mini pumpkins, using the NOVA technology to measure temperature, and experimenting on various chemical reactions.

In Video 2, students and teachers discuss their thoughts on the NOVA technology. Most of the students like that it is hands on, processes data remarkably fast, interactive, portable, and allows for independent thinking and exploration. The teachers echo the same comments as their students and some even hope to incorporate the NOVA eventually into their curriculum.
