HANDS ON LEARNING: "What's inside your phone?"
AZ SRUT reuses some donated equipment to make learning more impactful and relevant. All personal data has been removed from the devices.
At Cartwright Schools, an all Title I district, Justine Spitalny Steam school eighth graders took apart donated smartphones that were 'locked' and couldn't be refurbished.
Students learned and touched rare earth elements inside the phones, a hands-on chemistry lesson. Arizona State Standards for 8th graders were addressed.
As one of our Techie Lab partners, this workshop was offered at no cost to the school, one of the many benefits of being a Techie Lab partner. The cost to AZ StRUT is $50 per learner.
Our goal is to create tech producers not just tech users.
