Additional Thoughts

For the Action Project, we are considering an inquiry that would focus on photosynthesis. In the proposed inquiry, students would learn how to measure the rate of photosynthesis indirectly using a floating leaf disc technique. The same experimental method would be used on control and treated Tomatosphere™ plants. After doing the inquiry, students would be able to upload and compare their results with those of other students on CurioCity.

Would you be interested in helping us beta test this project this fall (2016)?

Please provide the email address you use for Tomatosphere™ . We will use this to confirm your responses and to send you the link to the compiled data.
