Are You Ready to Rock?! Heavy Metal Contamination and Remediation in Water and Soil
The contamination of water and soil by heavy metals poses a serious environmental problem with severe consequences for health.
Catalysts and Enzymes: Making Life Happen
This lesson is about catalysts. Catalysts speed up chemical reactions without being used up. The principles of catalysis are important in industrial processes, environmental remediation, and most importantly, sustain all of life through diverse biological processes.
Into the Blue Investigation
Into The Blue Investigation is a hands-on collaborative lab activity where students use their knowledge of chemistry and the scientific method to determine the reactants, products and type of a chemical reaction.
Make it Faster!
Reactions are vital to human functions and synthesis of materials. Sometimes reactions happen too slowly, so a catalyst is introduced to speed the reaction along. Sometimes reactions don’t happen easily so a catalyst is introduced to make the reaction occur.

Photoelectric Effect for Introductory Chemistry Course
EXtreme Environment Systems Lab (XLab) develops systems for operation within extreme harsh environments. Researchers in the XLab investigate the synthesis of temperature tolerant, chemically resistant and radiation-hardened wide bandgap semiconductor thin films and nanostructures.
Preparation and Combustion of Biodiesel. An Inquiry-Based Chemistry Laboratory
In this lesson, the students develop a synthesis to make biodiesel from vegetable oils. Students convert canola oil, a common vegetable oil found in kitchen, to biodiesel. The conversion involves a transesterification reaction of a triglyceride with methanol to produce biodiesel and glycerol.
Cyber A.C.E.S.
Cyber A.C.E.S. (Activities in Cybersecurity Education for Students) provides teachers with age-appropriate, interactive cybersecurity lessons for students ages 5–18, designed so anyone can teach them without prior cybersecurity expertise.
Figure It Out!
There are many instances in all areas of the workforce, where we are given a task in which we may not have all the necessary skills or knowledge to accomplish the goal immediately.
