Activity 6: Designing a Biotechnological Method to Protect Against UV

Source:

Designed by HSTA teachers and Jenny Bardwell; Funded by a NIH- Science Education Partnership Award RR-12329-0, WV Legislature, Dwight D. Eisenhower Math & Science Act, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Coca-Cola,W. W. Kellogg, Benedum, and Stanley & Virginia Hostler Foundations

Purpose:

Students, either groups or individuals, will design an idea and retrofit it to the natural ecosystem. They may want to test a model or idea out in the natural world. This activity may be entered into a competitive science project contest.

Materials:

materials and resources necessary to build a biotechnological simulated model

Time Frame:
