Welcome to Gateway Science!  The science faculty place an emphasis on students doing science by employing inquiry based learning techniques.  Inquiry based learning is a pedagogical style, which veers from the standard practice of simply giving students information and answers to memorize, that fully engages the student in their learning.  Through inquiry based learning strategies the Science faculty lead students to a natural understanding of the curriculum and have them actively engaged in scientific discovery. Students may be asked to conduct experiments and analyze data in order to uncover the ideal gas laws, or they may be challenged to design an experiment to discern whether a sample of yeast is alive.
