The goal of this ETP is to engage students in a hands –on engineering experience. Students will create pressurized water model rockets with 2 liter bottles and then launch them into the atmosphere.
The Mitch Lab at Stanford researches organic chemical reaction pathways involved in treating water, especially disinfection byproducts (DBPs), which result from reactions between disinfectants (usually chlorine) and dissolved organic matter.
Water is a valuable resource that all organisms need to survive. We utilize water in our daily lives in a multitude of ways. Students will use linear equations and systems of equations to calculate and analyze how much water they use in their daily lives.
Currently, Berkeley Chemistry fellows (postdocs, graduate students, and undergrads) are using extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light generated by table-top lasers to probe potential solar energy converting materials in order to analyze their charge carriers’ excitation and relaxation process.
The bulk properties of a material depend heavily on the microscopic structure of that material.
This interactive lab is an exercise in applying students’ knowledge of Conservation of Momentum and Energy to current dark matter research techniques. It’s a good review activity for Momentum and Energy, and it also bridges nicely into Atomic Physics.
The Fan research group in the Applied Nanophotonics Laboratory at Stanford focuses on the development of high performance and compact electromagnetic devices, combining new developments in materials science with new concepts in device and system design to produce new electromagnetic hardware.
Students learn the importance of semiconductors in their lives. They observe through a laboratory experience how charged materials affect the voltage output of a semiconductor.
Students with learning disabilities (SLDs) struggle with organizational skills, a consistent predictor of success in academic settings as well as in the workforce. These students, therefore, need explicit instruction on time management to help them develop independent skills in time management.
