Participant Interests

Below are the participants and their interests (note: some additions and subtractions are still pending). The activities they listed were in response to a request for "student or professional development activities you could present".

To correct your personal information, please use the update form on this web site.

Name Activity 1 Activity 2 Activity 3 Activity 4

Barbara Adams Carbon dioxide sources in the atmosphere (climate change) The peppered moth (environmental change) Alka seltzer rockets (air pressure)

Sistie Bender In teams, develop a concept map that shows the relationship of variables that affect soils' ability to retain water (or variables that affect global warming). Teams will make an oral presentation to justify their reasoning. After reading a newspaper article that reports about new technology in students' everyday world and the science behind the technology, the students will determine if the newspaper article supports or does not support he following idea: "Developments of science and technology affect the condition of life."

Jody Bertolucci "What's the Net Worth" - Rainforest Destruction, Interconnections, Competitive Exclusion. "Can't See the Forest Without the Trees" - Population Growth and Sustainable Development. "Resource Round-Up" - Population Growth and Resource Depletion.

Esther Brinson Effects of climate change on soil characterization a comparison of two areas of different latitudes. Urban growth as it relates to temperature change, weather patterns, water, air quality, etc. El Nino and its effects on climate change.

Leah Childers Science portfolios in KY (group presentation) Building a hygrometer Acid rain (formation and effects)

Avon Crawford Powders and Crystals presented as a Murder Mystery. Weather Unit for 5th Grade. Solar Energy Activities for Grade 5

David Crowell The problems associated with the eutrophication of bodies of water Increase in global population Pollution caused by defunct oil companies

Thomas Dileo

Richard Espey Using STAD cooperative learning Designing and Constructing a Passive Solar House Model Investigating Reactions That Form Carbon Dioxide

John Fabela Carbon Dioxide and global warming -- global warming and biodiversity Ozone depletion Solar Constant and the earth's carrying capacity

Frank Ferrara Deforestation Desertification Ozone layer depletion

Matthew Fritz Isothermal maps Box and Whisker plots

Michell Glover Exploring local temperature cycles using graphs. Discussing Global Warming through use of debate teams Using electronic visualizers to examine the Greenhouse Effect and other components of Global Warming

Kathy Gueltzow Reading strategies in the content area (climate change) Student portfolios with student-led conferences "Failing is not an option: "techniques/methods that ensure student success."

Bernagle Hagan

Pamela Hall Science portfolios KY (group presentation) Simple weather measuring devices made from common items Water cycle Rocks and minerals

Jerry Hays Causes and consequences of El Nino Current events of human impacts on environments Ways to relate environmental problems to students actions

Eric Johns "Salvage diver" -- a new method for demonstrating buoyancy Using graph paper and mass scale to calculate leaf surface area

Keva Jones

Joseph Keehn Making a cloud in a bottle. Making it rain acid rain

Ana Lopez Trees as habitats The fallen log Charting diversity

John Lord Same activities as Kathy Guiltzow (will present as team)

Margaret Lowry Using the internet and email to follow temperature trends through the months of September through December The Gorp lab: finding percent composition by mass using trail mix. Starch Osmosis: using household materials to observe osmosis and rate of diffusion The Water Balloon Sling Shot lab: finding velocity, acceleration, and momentum while trying not to hit the principal's van as we launch water balloons across the school parking lot
(I can present any of these and have them all on disk so they can be printed out quickly. They are also "Lowry-originals" and I am happy to share them. Let me know which will be best or if I need to try and come up with something else.)

Christine Maritato Environmental project involving the Pine Barrens Career mentorship program

Maureene Matthews Simulated Oil Spill and Clean-Up Global Warming- Real or Imaginary? Filtering "Dirty Water"

Madelyn McKiver Effect of climate on soil characteristics: comparison of two areas of same latitude Factors influencing climate changes Model of population growth

Frances Navarrette Seeds and plants Center of gravity and "Nature Mobiles"

Ginger Neace Science portfolios in KY (group presentation) Chemical weathering/acid rain Water conservation

Debra Noteboom Using the graphing calculator and CBL Teaching science using discrepant events Teaching chemistry using the CRISTALS program

Denise Peterson Alchemy of air Pressure blocks (air pressure) Mental Modeling

Dawn Quesenberry Teaching science to special needs students Visual and kinethetic classroom/lecture aids

Ruth Rosen

Pamela Sawyer-Kuforiji Detecting carbon dioxide Sources of CO2 in the Atmosphere The worldwide effects of climate change

Bernard Schreiner Rhino populations using dice Effect of water temperature on fish gill movements CBL measurements in ecology

Arlene Sweeting How population growth affects our planet Exploring alternative energy sources Walking lightly on the earth (how to lesson human impacts on the earth)

Bevon Thompson

Mary Wachala Detecting carbon dioxide Sources of CO2 in the atmosphere The worldwide effects of climate change

Meegan Zimmerman
