    Students Conduct Research at OSU’s Stone Lab

    Mr. Paul Genzman’s Environmental Science students spent the day at OSU’s Stone Lab on Gibraltar Island near Put-In-Bay on South Bass Island. Led by instructors Natalie and Ashley, students conducted a variety of tests on the water near Rattlesnake Island measuring windspeed, air and water temperature, water clarity, windspeed, and wave height.  They took water samples to look for presence of zooplankton, phytoplankton, fish, and invertebrates.
     
    Additionally, they learned about the ecosystem, environmental challenges caused by human impact, success of conservation efforts, the role of Stone Lab, and the history of the region. Special thanks to Stone Lab and our amazing instructors. Thanks to Paul Genzman and OHSPA for making the field trip possible.

    Election Math with Mr. Torio

    Students in Mr. Torio’s Discrete Mathematics class studied the mathematics of elections culminating in a project where students created their own election and carried it out. They created preference schedules and used four different voting methods to see if different methods would yield different results. Over the course of this unit, students reflected on fairness in elections and the necessity of understanding not just how votes are collected but how exactly they are counted to decide winners and rankings of candidates.
