1. Ipad 2 Fun
Group Members: Madison Bryan, Senior; Natalie Kral, Senior; and Courtney Scheu, Senior
IPad 2 Fun will be an exciting learning experience for Kindergarten through 5th grade students, their teachers and their parents. Current EAST students will teach how to effectively operate Ipads for educational use. The classes will be held at the Jessieville Elementary Discovery After-School Program and at Paul Bewie Boy’s and Girl’s Club. Both will be held in the spring semester, once a week for 2 hours. In addition to this program, EAST students will also volunteer their time to teach these skills in the Jessieville High School Life Skills classroom. Our EAST program wrote and received an Afterhours Grant from the state EAST Initiative worth $7300 for this project. With the grant money, we are purchasing 10 Ipad2s for our classroom!

5. Biology Leaf Project Map
Group Members: Andrew Martin, sophomore.
Description of Project: The biology teacher is in need of a map of the school along with locations of various trees for her leaf project for students. My plan is to retrieve information by using GPS and GIS software about where each tree for the leaf project, map the Jessieville campus, and return the map to the biology teacher to use. I am currently enrolled in an online Community Mapping course that will help us to learn the GPS and GIS programs and software.
