About this Event
Are you looking for ways to bring the magic of materials science to your classroom? In this in-person workshop, you’ll learn how to teach key materials science concepts to your students with engaging, hands-on activities. You’ll explore the science behind ceramics, glass, composites, metals, and more—and learn how these materials connect to products your students use every day.
During the day-long workshop, you’ll have the chance to:
- Conduct the 9 exciting lessons from CGIF’s Materials Science Classroom Kit. Learn how to teach lessons like...
Hot or Not? Heat a refractory brick on one side while the other side stays cool to the touch.
Candy Fiber Pull: Melt Jolly Ranchers and see how the long fibers resemble fiberglass.
How Strong is your Chocolate? Test different chocolate bars and find out which one can hold the most weight.
- Discover careers in materials science by chatting with local professionals at an industry luncheon
- Receive a FREE Materials Science Classroom Kit (valued at $250) to use in your own classroom!
- 6 contact hours will be granted upon completion of the workshop
