Students learn how anaerobic digesters transform food waste into renewable natural gas and fertilizer, then create a public service announcement explaining why this technology is an effective solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Students will be burning nut shells in order to calculate which releases the most heat energy, in a classic calorimetry experiment. Then, students will use their calculations to find how many nutshells it would take to power the average California home.
This lesson is considered to be among one the beginning, introduction lessons in a high school Chemistry class. The purpose of this lesson to reinforce early foundational concepts in Chemistry such as reactants, products; physical and chemical properties, chemical and physical changes;
Students will explore the differences between bottled water and tap water, focusing on cost, quality, and environmental impact. Through interactive activities and mathematical calculations, they will learn why tap water is a better choice both economically and environmentally.
In this tabletop game, students play the role of professional research scientists in the Bent Lab @ Stanford University, they choose a big, global problem that transistor technology is related to, and their goal is to improve transistor technology, using experimentation related to materials and s
Students will act as Water Treatment Specialists, designing filtration procedures for murky water and testing its quality using pH and turbidity. Through real-world connections to local facilities and industry careers, they will explore the science and importance of clean water.
The goal of this ETP is to see how Amazonian principles can be applied in the classroom to reinvent the laboratory design process with the help of collaboration. In the science classroom, laboratory procedures are generally provided for students.
Hands-on molecular modeling of the chemical reaction between CO2 and H2O along with tangible evidence will enhance students' understanding of chemical reactions and carbonic acid’s effects on shelled organisms.
Students explore how CO₂ affects water chemistry and marine life, analyze their own carbon footprint, and make actionable commitments to reduce CO₂ emissions in their community.
