Creating Sustainable Solutions With Bioplastics Part 2

No votes have been submitted yet.
This lesson is a follow-up to the lesson titled "Creating Sustainable Solutions with Bioplastics Part 1". In this lesson, students evaluate different ingredients for bioplastics and create a minimum viable product by experimenting with different bioplastic recipes. Students will identify a plastic product that could be replaced using bioplastics once they identify the characteristics of different recipes and then students work in groups to design a bioplastic equivalent of that product. This lesson takes multiple days to facilitate the experimentation with and testing of different ingredients and ends with students presenting their product to the class and evaluating the pros and cons and their recipe and design.
