Science Investigations
Antwerp International School
The new state-of-the-art STEMzone at AIS fosters the development of creativity, innovation, analytical thinking and collaboration through STEM studies. The new facility includes science labs, a fabrication lab, makerspaces, mathematics areas, IT spaces and common collaborative learning spaces.
Right from the start of the school year, the AIS STEMzone was buzzing with activities as students carried out their Science Internal Assessments, which are part of the IB Diploma Programme. The G12 students worked on their individual investigations for their science subjects. They chose a topic for their investigation and utilised all of the investigation skills they have developed during their Secondary years - not just how to set up an experiment or investigation, or how to analyse the information, but most importantly using their critical and creative thinking and analytical skills. It is a culmination of key skills that they have developed throughout their time at Antwerp International School. Here are two of these innovative projects in action.
