Toxic Popcorn Design Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process (EDP)—the process engineers use to solve design challenges.
Dunking the Planets
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.
Nano Ice Cream
Source Institutions
In this activity/demo, learners discover how liquid nitrogen cools a creamy mixture at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine grained (nano) ice cream.
Neural Network Signals
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create an electrical circuit and investigate how some dissolved substances conduct electricity.
Making Regolith
Source Institutions
This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?
Observing Different Microbes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use a microscope to examine three different microbes: bacteria, yeast and paramecia. Educator will need to prepare the yeast solution one day before the activity.
Not Just A Bag Of Beans
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners count and measure kidney beans to explore natural selection and variation. Learners measure the length of 50-100 beans.
Making An Impact!
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.
There's Always Room For JELL-O
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners cut wells in JELL-O© and load the wells with different detergent solutions.
Make a Comet Model and Eat It!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.
Biotechnology Through Time
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the history and development of agricultural biotechnology.
Interactive Gumball Machine
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners review the history of gumball machines and explore potential and kinetic energy, while working in teams to build a gumball slide.
Fruity-Glows: Pictures of Health on a Microarray Canvas
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 12), learners apply the concepts of pixilation and pointillism to the world of biomedical science.
