Instructional
Activities
Five
instructional activities are
presented below and available for classroom use.Teachers
created these activities during the summer session and once teachers
have incorporated suggestions from the Rice University and
UTMB team, they report the results of their classroom implementation
during follow-up meetings during the academic year and make appropriate
modifications as needed to the written documents. Teachers in the
program receive follow up support from Dr.
Sognier and Ms. Jensen throughout
the year. These activities
include experiments for high school biology classrooms in which students
will be introduced to the concept of human exposure to pollution, draw
parallels between indoor and ambient air, and look at the importance
of preserving
the quality of indoor air. as well as another
unit which focuses on investigating the effects of microgravity on
major body
systems.
