Chemiluminescence
In a chemiluminescence chemical reaction, light is generated as a product. What causes light to be generated from chemicals that interact? This chemistry lesson explores the reasons why light is generated through a review of electron movement, ion formation, photon absorption and emission, with an introduction to oxidation-reduction reactions that characterize chemiluminescence. The lesson includes a demonstration of chemiluminescence reactions. In addition to the one day lesson, there is a one day lab component in which students explore the relationship between glow stick reaction rates with temperature and external light.

Students have the opportunity explore different materials that use nanotechnology and then discuss the key differences between macroscale and nanoscale impacts on those materials.
Students are introduced to the concept of nanotechnology with a small group research activity about the different industries using nanotechnology.
Involving themes of outdoor recreation, ecology, and physical sciences, this engineering lesson introduces students to the behavior of channel flows within the realm of fluid mechanics. Utilizing the
