Description:

Science-Sense are weekly afternoon workshops that provide participants an opportunity to engage in hands-on scientific exploration while encouraging a curious and investigative mindset and invoking creativity and imagination.

In Mystery Lab, students will apply scientific principles and critical thinking skills to solve a captivating scientific puzzle. The teams will learn how to work in teams to follow the instructions using a specialized kit containing all the materials needed for the experiment. The mystery lies the selected kit. The challenge is to observe, hypothesize, experiment, and deduce the mystery behind the scientific phenomenon.

TASGM workshops teach students that art and science share fundamental and overlapping principles including observation, creativity, attention to detail, experimentation, problem-solving, and a commitment to communication and innovation. Creativity and imagination are crucial to designing experiments and hypotheses, and science can be seen as an artistic process when approached with intention, ingenuity, and a desire to explore the beauty within. The fusion of these makes learning more exciting and more tangible. Workshops include a range of activities that cater to various interests and learning styles, including an introduction to meditation to help students learn to sharpen their focus, increase attention, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being, all of which contribute to academic success and a more enriching scientific exploration. Registration is for each 90-minute workshop. All materials are furnished.
