The Black Box: Nature of Science Introductory Lab
Problem of practice
How can you open the school year with an activity that gets students involved with "doing science" from day one, sets ground rules for lab activities, and establishes presentation protocols and classroom culture?
Solution
I present an activity, modified from the MUSE curriculum project, that asks students to develop a model of the internal mechanism responsible for a set of behaviors of a system for which students may only measure inputs and outputs.




Black box
This looks like a great hands on project for students to use. I think my students in Science would appreciate it since they get to see what is actually happening. I also liked the way you explained your project. I would like to see some students actually participating in the black box project. Would that be possible?
