How bright are our scholars? Well, according to these multimeters, they are super bright! Learning how light affects our crops is a big part of agriculture. The researchers at the Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences took some time to show our scholars just how that works with this fun experiment.
Flightline scholars enjoyed a sunny afternoon at the North Little Rock Municipal Airport this week. What a fun learning experience for our ALSEA scholars!
The Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art hosts a stunning collection of art and exhibitions as well as 120 acres of beautiful Arkansas nature to explore. Our Scholars had a great time exploring this beautiful area.
It was a day of clear skies and soaring spirits as our Pine Bluff ALSEA scholars visited the North Little Rock Municipal Airport to learn more about aviation.
Scholars got a taste of marketing and sales and how that affects the consumer in a food sciences activity at the University of Arkansas this week. They even got to test those methods with a sweet taste test.
Chip, chip, hurray! It's salsa time! Our scholars rounded out their food adventures with homemade salsa. A special thank you to our friends at the University of Arkansas for making learning so delicious.
