This activity aims to stimulate discussion on the question of whether computers can exhibit “intelligence,” or are ever likely to do so in the future.

This activity lets learners participate in the process of reconstructing a phylogenetic tree and introduces them to several core bioinformatics concepts, particularly in relation to evolution.

This activity requires a Pico Cricket (tiny computer). Learners work on designing and building a sound sensor out of household materials, like plastic wrap and cardboard.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity (page 12), learners apply the concepts of pixilation and pointillism to the world of biomedical science.

In this online version of the classic paper and pencil game, learners practice looking ahead to anticipate an opponent's move.

In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers incorporate biometric technologies into products as well as the challenges of engineers who must weigh privacy, security and other issues when designin

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Earthquakes) is a full inquiry investigation into aerial imagery.

In this data activity, learners analyze data from coral reef snapshots taken by scientists at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science.

In this activity, learners calculate the number of milliliters of water a nearby tree transpires per day.
