The Carbon Cycle and its Role in Climate Change: Activity 3
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.
Neural Network Signals
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create an electrical circuit and investigate how some dissolved substances conduct electricity.
Colorful Electrophoresis
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners follow step-by-step instructions to build a gel electrophoresis chamber using inexpensive materials from local hardware and electronic stores.
Disease Detectives
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners examine antibodies and antibody recognition using a model.
Simulation of Laparoscopic Surgery Lab
Source Institutions
This simulation of laparoscopic surgery enables learners to practice and to learn this modern surgical technique.
The Carbon Cycle: How It Works
Source Institutions
In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another
Design a Park
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!
OBIS Oil Spill
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.
Urine the Know
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 5 of the PDF, learners compare water with artificial urine to see how urinalysis works. Learners use urinalysis test strips to test for glucose and protein in the fake urine.
Tracking Otters
Source Institutions
This activity (on pages 38-43) has learners simulate the way scientists track and map the movement of otters in the wild using radio trackers.
Challenge: Microgravity
Source Institutions
In this activity about the circulatory system and space travel (on page 38 of the PDF), learners use water balloons to simulate the effects of gravity and microgravity on fluid distribution in the bod
Water Treatment
Source Institutions
Water treatment on a large scale enables the supply of clean drinking water to communities.
Aerial Imagery
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Earthquakes) is a full inquiry investigation into aerial imagery.
Sustainable Grazing
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.
