The Culver City Education Foundation (CCEF) received a very generous donation form Plains Exploration & Production (PXP). With this $20,000 donation, 10 tech combos consisting of a document camera, LCD projector and secure cart will be purchased for all the Culver City Middle School science classes. These tech combos will enhance the learning experience for all the science students.
The document camera/LCD projector technology allows for a variety of teaching materials to be projected on any blank surface so that all students can clearly see the image, eliminating the need for other equipment. It will allow the teacher more time to devote to student comprehension, questions and more one on one interaction, greatly enhancing learning for both visual and auditory learners.
In addition, next fall the CCMS science classes will go on a field trip to PXP to learn the ins and outs of exploration and production of oil and gas. PXP hopes to motivate students to want to pursue learning about science and math.
