What is Exploration Science?
This is a cutting edge elective course being offered at Dana Middle School. This course helps the student explore science through engineering, technology, math and inquiry. This is a project-based course that is driven primarily by VEX Robotics curriculum and MESA math and science curriculum.
VEX Robotics in the classroom
Students may explore areas of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) using the VEX Robotics curriculum. This provides an engaging and fun opportunity to develop skills relevant in the 21st Century.
MESA Curriculum
From the MESA website (mesa.ucop.edu), "
The MSP assists students at middle and senior high schools (and some elementary schools) so they excel in math and science and become competitively eligible for academically rigorous colleges and universities. "
