This activity is a classroom experiment where students make observations, state hypothesis and carry out an investigation to draw conclusions.

This activity is a demonstration proving that carbon dioxide is more dense than air which leads to a deeper understanding of the term density.

This is an integration of science leaf observations with musical composition for early elementary students.

This activity is a lab where students will design an experiment dealing with one of the five senses. Students will collect data outside of class, write a formal lab write up as well as a group presentation on their findings.

Students will design, build and test a hot air balloon of their choosing. Students will construct and test components in order find three component optimum design features for final assembly.

An engineering design project modified to teach the scientific methos, promote team-builing, and engage students at the beginning of a physics course.

This activity is a lab where students design an experiment to test the rate of photosynthesis. Students will analyze data,write a report using the scientific method, and apply results to current environmental issues.

This activity is an inquiry lab where students are challenged to create a slow moving and fast moving plane and measure the speed.

These are resources that will provide teachers with further information on the isopods used in the experiments.

This is a lab activity where students observe the relationship between pressure and volume. They use their data to determine the formula for Boyle's Law.

In this activity, students will investigate how much chlorophyll is in olive oil using a Varnier Spectrometer. Students will measure and analyze the visible light absorbance spectra of three standard olive oils obtained from any supermarket: extra virgin, regular, and light.

This lab activity allows students to indetify macroinvertebrates and determine the health of an acquatic ecosystem.

This activity is a field investigation where students gather population data on bird species. The students will create bar graphs and interpret their findings. Based on their experiences and data, they will write an answer to the guiding question.

This activity combines field exercise soil collection with lab analysis of soil bulk density. Students develop a lab procedure to measure density and analyze data using Microsoft Excel computer software.

This activity is an introduction to population sampling techniques. Students' will identify weaknesses and strengths of a variety of techniques and determine the best applications of the various methods identified.

Students are asked to determine the break even profit point for a service to be offered on campus, using an online break even calculator.

This activity is an inquiry lab where students observe the effects of temperature change on nitrogen dioxide gas, a common component of polluted air, to determine its color.

In this field lab activity, students will determine the density, pH and water content of prairie soil, transition soil, woods soil, and riverbed soil and compare their findings.
