In this activity, learners explore how the power of the sun can be harnessed to heat and cool a building.

In this activity, learners explore the function and engineering of dams and how dams have many uses and solve many problems in the world.

In this design-based activity, learners explore environments, ecosystems, energy flow and organism interactions by creating a model biodome. Learners become engineers who create model ecosystems.

In this activity, learners will see how UV light affects colors over time by making their own sunprint on construction paper.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

In this activity, learners examine ways that Native Americans of the Southwest express their relationship with nature through art.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has developed various means to remove impurities from water.

In this activity, learners investigate passive solar building design with a focus solely on heating.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from

In this design challenge activity, learners explore the concept of biomimicry by using a natural organism's special features to design a new human object.

In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

In this design challenge, learners design a storm drain cover that catches litter to protect waterways to learn about how local actions can have system-level effects.
