Activity
Hands-on experiments, debates, data dives, and diagramming and design exercises put students at the center of their learning.
We summarize the week's scientific breakthroughs every Thursday.
- Physics
Wave detection
Students will design, build, test and optmize their own light-based detector for waves (a simple optical seismometer) and will explore how this detector relates to more sophisticated gravitational wave detectors.
- Physics
Wave generation
Students will generate and observe waves in a clear pan of water, drawing connections between these waves and light and gravitational waves.
- Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence through the years
Students will search the Science News archive for stories related to artificial intelligence, its applications and potential issues.
- Earth
Diving in to coral research
Students will search the Science News archives for stories related to coral reef science and coral bleaching.
