In this collection of demonstrations, learners explore Newton's Laws of Motion.

In this activity, learners build inexpensive pulley assemblies from pulley wheels used for sliding screen door replacement or from clothesline spreaders.

Learners use several types of insect sampling and collection equipment to make an insect collection. Learners can collect insects from their schoolyard or yard at home.

In this activity, learners explore the history, design and motion of spinning tops. Learners work in teams of "engineers" to design and build their own tops out of everyday items.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of sight and develop and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity, learners explore sports engineering and advanced materials development.

In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

In this series of exercises, learners predict the conditions necessary for bacterial growth, test their predictions and at the same time practice the aseptic techniques and safety procedures needed wh

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers work in a team to solve problems.

In this activity, learners explore how wind tunnels provide feedback to engineers about the performance and durability of products such as planes, cars, and buildings.

In this activity, learners explore how infrared technology is used by engineers to create equipment and systems for a variety of industries.
