Andrew Popichak

pp. 53-58

A participant's experiences as part of the RAISE program (Revitalizing Achievement by using Instrumentation in Science Education). This program involved Polytechnic University professors, graduate and undergraduate students, high school teachers and their students. It seeks to facilitate the implementation of sensor-based labs in the curriculum of high schools in the NYC school system with a particular emphasis in science courses subject to state-wide Regents Exams.The present article is based on the experience of a high school teacher in George Westinghouse High School. The program was perceived to have a positive effect on student performance and pedagogy.
