Practical 27 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical the students will be able to test the effect of various heat treatments on bobby pins to determine what properties each treatment gives, and what would they appropriately be used for. The practical does not require much equipment, but gives real quantitative data for comparision. It also gives a chance for the students to delve into the history of metals. The introduction discusses the Stone, Bronze and Iron ages, as well as some examples of how heat treatment was used throughout history. When working in a group, if the equipment was already laid out, the data for this practical could be collected in 45 minutes. More about the History in STEM practical Series This series is designed to bring quality cross-curricula material to STEM subjects, that help students to explore and discover phenomena normally taught, while getting a glimpse into the history of its development. In addition, a number of the practicals give the students the opportunity to play “Mythbusters”, looking at a number of different methods and having to reason why one or the other was the more likely or useful method. From Ancient Greece to Vikings, China to the Golden age of the Muslim empire and beyond to India, the series takes a look at some of the most important STEM achievements throughout history. There is a plan for about 40 of these such practicals in this series, so, if you liked this one, consider looking at some of the others, or check out some of the bundles available.

Practical 22 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical, “Oh Mummy” is a great biology/history cross over, as students test various methods to mummify a piece of apple. Easy to set up, this practical is great for generating discussions in a number of areas of biology, ranging from human anatomy, looking into how food is broken down, or even cultural practices (due to the introduction covering mummification practices of multiple nations), just to name a few. You can even encourage the students to brainstorm on additional theories to test, allowing the students to go through the scientific method. A real all-rounder, interesting practical that the students will remember for years to come.

Practical 21 in the History in STEM practical series. This practical, “The Slow Roll” takes a look at two classic experiments completed by Galileo in order to “prove” that a falling object does in fact accelerate when it falls. The most difficult object to get will be a ramp long enough for the test, however, I have used cardboard shipping tubes (for posters and the like) in the past to great success. This practical is also great because it gives the students another way to measure time, getting them to think outside the box of what can be used to take measurements and even to get accurate results. This is a practical they will be sure to remember.

Practical 24 in the History in STEM practical series. In this practical the students will test out the age old proverb of “Red Sunset, Sailor’s Delight. Red Sunrise, Sailors Warning”. This practical will take a few weeks to complete, but requires almost no material, beyond what many students have, namely a camera (or phone), pen and paper. The students observe the colour of the sunset over a time period set by yourself, and record what the weather is like the following day. The practical includes history of how people attempted to predict weather in the past, continues to an experiment with observations and finishes with a short research activity where the students go online to research other proverbs. This one is perfect for group work and allows for a great cross-curriculum link between Science, Mathematics, History and Geography.
