The Carbon strand has two sets of materials available. One is the MSP Plant Teaching Experiment (Unit). Another is a set of 6 units from the Carbon TIME (Transformations in Matter and Energy) Project.
The Carbon TIME project has developed several modules for the teaching experiment conducted at middle, and high school levels. Our teaching goal is to facilitate students to develop the scientific model-based reasoning--describing carbon cycling processes at multiple scales, from atomic-molecular to landscape scale, with matter and energy conservation as constrains. Each of our six units focuses on familiar systems and events that involve carbon-transforming processes.
