Reaction Transformation: Teaching Kinetics with Food Coloring and Bleach

April 6, 2023

2:00–2:45 p.m. PDT | 5:00–5:45 p.m. EDT

No aqueous crystal violet? No problem! Prepare your students for their chemistry exams with science they can see!

Join Vernier chemistry expert Nüsret Hisim as he shows you how to use two common household items, food coloring and bleach, to explore the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Walk away with strategies for teaching this important scientific concept, including using calculated columns to determine the order of reaction and the rate expression.

Student-Led Explorations Into Respiration Rate and Spirometry

Bring a breath of fresh air into your biology instruction with these exciting spirometry and respiration rate experiments! Join our director of biology, John Melville, as he demonstrates how your students can use the Go Direct® Respiration Belt and Go Direct Spirometer to measure tidal volume and observe changes in respiration rate. You will also learn how to record videos with data and how to share data through our Vernier Graphical Analysis® Pro app.

Two Simple Ways of Breaking Down Cellular Respiration for Your Students

Join Director of Biology John Melville as he shares two simple strategies for teaching cellular respiration using engaging, easy-to-implement Vernier experiments.

Due to its abstract nature, cellular respiration can be a challenging topic for many learners. Give your students the opportunity to make real-world connections with two cellular respiration experiments! Our director of biology, John Melville, shares two simple strategies for teaching cellular respiration using hands-on experiments that you can easily implement in your class. In our first experiment, you will find out how to monitor the carbon dioxide and oxygen produced by germinating and non-germinating peas using our Go Direct® CO2 Gas Sensor and Go Direct O2 Gas Sensor. Next, you’ll learn how to demonstrate cellular respiration using yeast, a beaker of water, and our Go Direct Optical Dissolved Oxygen Probe.

Capacitors, Sound Waves, and Beats: Lessons to Energize Your Classroom

Electricity and sound units are on the horizon for the second half of the typical physics curriculum. Get a head start on your spring lessons with our latest webinar!
Electricity and sound measurement are key concepts in any physics curriculum! In this video, physics expert Tom Smith demonstrates two popular physics experiments from Vernier: “Capacitors” and “Sound Waves and Beats.” Additionally, see how to use the Vernier Graphical Analysis® app to measure the potential across a resistor-capacitor circuit, the properties of sound waves, and more.

Recharge Your Lesson Plan! Moving Beyond the Lemon Battery to Teach Electrochemistry

Keep your electrochemistry lesson plans current and move beyond the lemon battery! Join Vernier chemistry expert Nüsret Hisim as he explores electrochemistry through a voltaic cell experiment. You’ll learn how to use simple materials, including string, metal wire, and salt solutions, to create half-cells with your students. This experiment will help students understand the structure of a voltaic cell, electrolytes, and salt bridges.
