Hi Lori, the ArcGIS School Bundle includes a suite of tools (including an ArcGIS Online Org and ArcGIS Pro) that schools can use for instructional use at no cost. HOW these tools get used is up to the schools and teachers. The Citizen Science Solution (https://solutions.arcgis.com/state-government/help/citizen-science-reporter/) is a suite of apps that depend on certain software being in place locally. You can see the software requirements, and test-drive the apps, at the link above. I do encourage folks to study their situation carefully and decide if it's better to use tools that others have designed to fit a broad array of situations or build something (perhaps simpler) that accomplishes only what you seek. And, of course, any project design should be understood thoroughly and given a prototype test or two on small projects before embarking on the grand project.
