| The effects that art and creativity has on an individual’s behavior and academic excellence
| Description:
| I am giving individuals a academic test on subject such as math. The individual will take this timed test. I will then have the same test given a second time. The difference this second time, will be a certain time allotted for coloring before the test is taken. I am testing to see if the art and creativity has any effects on the outcome of test scores. I have found in my results, that art and creativity does in fact have a positive effect on academics such as math.

I allowed the concrete to harden for 14 days and then placed the concrete tubes in a brine solution and allowed them to sit for a week. Then I broke the tubes apart and examined the steel rods that had been placed in the concrete for corrosion.
