In this online activity, learners adjust mountain snowfall and temperature to see how glaciers grow and shrink. They will use scientific tools to measure thickness, velocity and glacial budget.

In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate organisms that live along the ocean's rocky coast.

In this two-part outdoor activity, learners conduct a population census of squirting clams on a beach or mudflat, and investigate the clams' natural history.

In this outdoor, beach activity, learners use tennis balls, water balloons and other simple devices to investigate the movement of waves and currents off a sandy beach.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners use tsunami time travel maps to predict how long it will take a tsunami to reach the shore.

This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

In this data analysis and environmental science activity, learners evaluate the feasibility of wave energy as a practical alternative energy source using ocean observing system (OOS) buoys.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this activity/demo, learners examine a synthetic gecko tape with micron sized hairs that mimics the behavior of the gecko foot.

This game introduces learners to the scale of the greenhouse gas problem, plus technologies that already exist to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions and prevent climate change.
