Energy Conversions We teach students about different sources of power, including oil, solar, wind, and nuclear, and the various pros and cons of each as well as how they are used to generate power. Then, we create small catapults to demonstrate the conversion of energy from potential to kinetic. ...
Exploring Bioproducts: Glue for Piñatas This module introduces students to bioproducts. Students learn about different examples of bioproducts made from different plants. Students also get to use a bioproduct. Students watch a demonstration of making “engrudo” (wheat paste), which is made from starch and hot water and involves the...
Floating Ink Experiment The Floating Ink Experiment explores the concepts of surface chemistry, density, and flocculation explained in simple terms for young students to understand. On a smooth surface dish, the young student will lightly draw a picture of what they desire with an expo marker and with a sharpie. Then, the...
Fluid Dynamics: Measuring Viscosity with Timed Marble Drop through Liquids Students will be introduced to the concept of viscosity by dropping marbles into graduated cylinders filled with liquids of varying viscosities, and they will time the marble as it falls through the liquid. The viscosity of the liquid is inversely proportional to the velocity of the marble and will...
Fun with Fluorescence This module allows students to learn about two physical phenomena: fluorescence and crosslinking polymers. Students will have the opportunity to add sodium alginate to calcium chloride to produce a cross-linked polymer, calcium alginate; this is unique because students can take two liquids and make...
Gel Beads! Learning about material science concepts through sodium alginate beads. In this module, kids will watch gel beads form before their eyes while learning about polymers, hydrogels, diffusion, and more! ...
Guac, Inc.! In this combination demonstration-experiment, students practice engineering-style thinking by dividing an existing process into distinct steps, organizing those steps in sequence, and considering the logistical changes in scale, equipment, and factors unique to the product at hand. Then, they dive...
Heron's Fountain at Home The objective of this module is to introduce students of grades 9th to 12th to the fundamentals of fluid mechanics through a Do-it-yourself module based on the popular theory of Heron’s Fountain. Interactive handouts have been developed whose aim is to guide students to understand the concepts...
Hydrophilic vs Hydrophobic After the demonstrations and activity students will know about the properties of hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials. To introduce the concepts, a demonstration of will be used, a “lava lamp” made with cooking oil, water, and alka seltzer. The topic of density will also be explored in the...
Hydrovolt House Currently, fossil gasses are the primary pollutants that we produce. For this reason, it's important to learn about alternative methods that are aligned with the UN's goal of creating affordable and clean forms of energy. The goal is to comprehend the process of generating energy using water,...
