WORKSHOP 4: Non-Newtonian Fluids: Math and Chemistry Meet |
|
Show general info
Content: |
The workshop will be modeled after an in-class project prepared by NSF GK-12 Fellows working at Coronado High School in 2012. The topic of Non-Newtonian Fluids will be discussed, and short lessons on water tension, shearing, and polymers will be shared. The calculations and equations used to make the project a success will also be demonstrated. Additionally, there will be an opportunity to experience the effects of “oobleck” first-hand. This project has been effective in chemistry and mathematics classrooms, and it has clearly shown that building bridges between these two courses can be fun and informative. |
