The Istituto Tecnico Industriale Armellini recycles used PCs from various companies. The school exploits Internet to locate missing drivers and participates in discussion groups to solve many issues. Norton Ghost Software is used to keep a copy of the hard disk (operating system, programmes, data) and save all the necessary information to avoid having to re-install all the software. (Areas: electronics, IT - Research conducted during the 2007/2008.)

The new robotics laboratory of the Istituto Meucci has produced automatic crane controls, an automatic greenhouse and a miniature Ferrari. The mechanical movements of these devices are regulated by a computer or micro-controller depending on the instructions provided by the programme relative to given variables. The micro-controller is programmed in C++, while PC programming exploits the Visual C++ environment. (Areas: IT, electronics, telecommunications, systems - Research conducted during the 2007/2008.)

The liceo Labriola three-year physics course reaches the twentieth century including the contribution of science to recent technologies in use in the world. The laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and the experiments are accompanied by simulations. (Areas: mathematics, physics - Research conducted during the 2005/2006.)

The “Istituto Comprensivo M. Capozzi” promotes continuity between elementary and middle school through various initiatives. In particular, the “Energy in Play” project aims to heighten awareness concerning energy saving. The abstract concept of energy is brought closer to home through the observation of its manifestations in every day life and easily replicable experiences. (Areas: science; computer studies - Research conducted during the 2006/2007 school year.)
