We are trying to keep kids in math and science long after they have taken all the courses required of them.
Children attending science camp in north Georgia mountains become aware of environmental issues.
Science isn't found only in the classroom, the lab, or the textbook. And it's not just what is being discovered, it's who is making the discovery. Most of Georgia Tech's summer programs have focused on introducing minority and disadvantaged children in middle schools to science and technology. Students studied aerospace, aviation and space-related principles. Approximately 200 participants built and launched model airplanes and rockets, visited laboratories on the Tech campus, studied and experienced the physics of Six Flags, and observed NASA-related research at Tuskegee Institute in Alabama.
