SEARCH class:
SEARCH stands for Science Enrichment And ResearCH and it was created to be a semester long science elective class open to all 7th and 8th grade students at Joaquin Miller Middle School, a public school within the Cupertino Union School District. Designed to offer students an authentic scientific research experience directly driven by student-generated projects, the learning of science is made applicable as each project is developed from a business perspective and all student groups are effectively start-up companies. SEARCH students foster the 21st century skills needed to navigate through a world demanding the use of technology for the purpose of creation and design, group work abilities to bring an idea to life, and stamina to persevere through iteration after iteration of all possible outcomes.
