The "Let's Connect-Connecting Disciplines Through Data Analysis"
project is to develop a comprehensive school-wide project directed
at collecting, analyzing, and communicating student-centered data.
The first phase of the project is entitled "Understanding Your
School!" This part of the project consists of four modules designed
to involve secondary students. The modules are designed to be
completed by a variety of disciplines and classes. Providing
students meaningful data about their schools opens up the potential
for communication outside of the school. This phase moves students
into a potential of school-to-school communication by way of
electronic networks, highlighting the theme of the project,
"Let's Connect!" (1994)
