In this design-based activity, learners explore environments, ecosystems, energy flow and organism interactions by creating a model biodome. Learners become engineers who create model ecosystems.

Learners design their own experiment to determine conditions that either help or hinder the decomposition of carrots by soil microbes.

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

As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners investigate the history and development of agricultural biotechnology.
