PROBE notebooks

The PROBE framework encourages AIG students to engage in personal research on topics they are passionate about. By creating a PROBE notebook or submitting an "ePROBE" via Edmodo, students can explore themes in depth. The process involves selecting a topic, researching, and writing a report with at least ten original facts, all in their own words. They’ll enhance their work with creative borders, relevant illustrations, and thorough source citations. This authentic research initiative fosters critical thinking and creativity in learning.
