Abstract
A Pollutant’s Tale and its primary school version, Gases in the Air, are two talks that have been developed and modified over the last ca. 18 years, that provide audiences from approximately 4–90 years old with the background to the composition of the Earth’s lower atmosphere, the Earth’s climate, and the impact of air pollution. In this article, we describe the content of the talks and provide videos of each experiment individually as well as a recorded performance of both talks to an empty auditorium. In this article, we discuss ways that the talk can be further developed and its impact on audiences.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Education is the official journal of the Division of Chemical Education of the American Chemical Society, co-published with the American Chemical Society Publications Division. Launched in 1924, the Journal of Chemical Education is the world’s premier chemical education journal. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and related information as a resource to those in the field of chemical education and to those institutions that serve them. JCE typically addresses chemical content, activities, laboratory experiments, instructional methods, and pedagogies. The Journal serves as a means of communication among people across the world who are interested in the teaching and learning of chemistry. This includes instructors of chemistry from middle school through graduate school, professional staff who support these teaching activities, as well as some scientists in commerce, industry, and government.
