Connecting the dots... from the lab to the living room and beyond.
It's a powerful thing when your children recognize authentic applications of what they've learned in school out in the real world—whether they're in kindergarten or college prep. Once they make that connection and discover that their work is real and relevant, it opens up whole new worlds of possibilities. It also makes a compelling case to extend their learning outside of the classroom.
Use this portal as your jumping-off point for educational family activities, tips, resources and discussion points about green technology, energy conservation, fuel efficiency, alternative energy sources and more. The future is riding on the young minds of today.
