EXPERIENCE BRINKLEY EAST
Brinkley Environmental and Spatial Technology classes are designed to help students become responsible individuals and to make decisions. Students are responsible for choosing and carrying out projects that serve a real need in their community. Students work in collaborative groups using technology to carry out their service projects. Students teach themselves, at their own pace, how to use the technology available in EAST. Hands-on learning is the theme in this course. The facilitator, Mrs. D. Archable-Roark, (a teacher trained in the EAST process) guides the students in the classroom. Students who choose this course do not have to be familiar with computers, technology, or software applications to sign up-these skills will be learned as they work through their project. Self-motivation, a good work ethic, and a desire to make their community a better place are the prerequisites for this class.
