Kit Description:
This Light and Optics Experiment Kit was created by LASER-TEC and is available for purchase. This kit was designed to help students explore geometric optics, wave optics, and the basics of lasers. This kit provides all necessary tools and materials to conduct over 18 experiments....
The Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Workshop (MAST) provides this experiment on fiber optics. The lesson aims to show that light will travel down a glass tube because of internal reflection. This module will help students understand the physical properties that allow fiber optics...
This module, created by the Center for Nanotechnology Education (Nano-Link), introduces students to "the phenomenon of band gaps in light emitting diodes using readily accessible experimental materials, LEDs, and inexpensive digital meters." During the learning activity students build a simple Light...
Unit Description:
FLATE, the Florida Advanced Technological Education Center for Manufacturing, has developed a series of “Made in Florida” lesson plans to prepare students for careers in manufacturing. These Lesson Plans are intended to enrich science, technology, engineering, and mathematics...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, allows students to "understand how light is bent into different directions as it interacts with small objects, especially those on the nanoscale (1-100nm)." Additionally, students will learn about the process of x-ray...
This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers magnetism. Students will experiment with ferrofluid which is "a unique material that has both magnetic and liquid properties. It is a colloidal solution of nano-sized particle of magnetite suspended in a liquid." A...
This handout from the Biotechnology Alliance for Suncoast Biology Educators reviews the basic biology and classification of major invertebrate animal phyla for high school biology students. It requires live animal examples. Model animals include: upside down jellyfish, tubifex worm, aquatic snail,...
The Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Workshop (MAST) provides this experiment on concrete in construction. The experiment focuses on developing an understanding of concrete as a construction material. Concrete products will be designed and constructed. Students will use two different sized...
This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, introduces students to the temperature response of liquid crystals, and how they respond in different phases of matter. In addition to liquid, solid, and gas, the fourth phase of matter includes liquid crystals which "have...
This lesson, from the Northern Wyoming Community College District, focuses on the transformation of energy from one form to another through electrical current detection and generation. Students create a model electricity generator and compare it to a real-world "state of the art" coal power plant...
