The Fayette County Public Schools has begun a partnership with the UCLA IMMEX Project which is sponsored by the National Science Foundation. IMMEX (Interactive Multi-Media Exercises) engages students in: 
  • Scientific inquiry
  • Distinguishing relevant information
  • Planning search strategies
  • Gathering information
  • Reaching decisions that demonstrate understanding. 

IMMEX problem cases are a free web-based resource which are available to everyone. They challenge students to investigate a problem and then provide them with the resources to develop, test, and refine hypotheses to arrive at complex solutions. The Fayette County Public Schools project has the goal of preparing and posting 42 new problem sets for middle and high school science, technology, engineering, and math during the three-year duration of the project.
