Workshop: A Natural Approach to Chemistry/ Electrochemical Cells and the Battery /One in a Million

In this workshop we will explore how to teach core chemistry concepts using a new chemistry program, A Natural Approach to Chemistry. A Natural Approach to Chemistry is an integrated program that uses hands-on activities and laboratory investigation as the central focus. This workshop will use inquiry based laboratory investigations that teach the relationship between electrons, electricity, and chemistry. How do chemicals store energy? Each group will investigate the various parts of the lemon battery and the galvanic cell, then we will discuss the related chemical reactions, and how batteries obtain energy from chemicals.

SEPUP Modules
SEPUP MODULES

SEPUP Modules are self contained instructional units which take between 2 - 6 weeks to complete. The modules typically deal with a specific topic area such as pollution, energy, waste and household chemicals. The materials package that accompanies each module includes enough material for 5 classes of 32 students (160 total students). Also included is a comprehensive teacher's guide with black-line master student sheets and overhead transparencies.
