In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

In this design challenge activity, learners use two helium-filled balloons to build a blimp that can travel in a straight path across the room.

Agriculturalists have long considered mushroom growing a challenge, largely because you need a piece of benchtop equipment known as a laminar flow hood.

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this design challenge activity, learners use a balloon and other simple materials to design an air-powered rocket that can hit a distant target.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.

In this activity, learners explore rocketry and the principals of space flight.

In this activity, learners create a "Jam Jar Jet" based on Francois Reynst's discovery of a pulsejet engine, which uses one opening for both air intake and exhaust.
