Assignment 3: What is an Adult Partner

All students 3rd-5th will have an opportunity to participate in an EAST Orientation (example: the EAST Packet).  Students will need to partner with a caring adult (parent, mentor, school employee, and/or other) to assist with submitting an EAST Application which will provide an opportunity to participate in EAST Project not just orientation.

Assignment 2: What is an EAST Project

EAST is all about project-based learning and community service; EAST students use cutting-edge technology to solve problems they identify in their communities. Often the students provide services not otherwise available in the community. Approximately 200 EAST programs across Arkansas and the country serve as valuable resources for their schools and communities. Read more at http://www.eastinitiative.org/projectsschools/.

Assignment 1: What is EAST?

EAST® (Environmental and Spatial Technology) is an educational model focusing on student-driven service projects accomplished by using teamwork and cutting-edge technology. EAST classrooms are equipped with state-of-the-art workstations, servers, software and accessories, including GPS/GIS mapping tools, architectural and CAD design software, 3D animation suites, virtual reality development and more. Students identify problems in their local communities and then use these tools to develop solutions, collaborating with civic and other groups in the process.
