Year in Program:
2017-2018
Designed For:
HS Students
Overview
In this activity, students will learn about liposomes, design a scientific experiment to test optimal liposomal fabrication, and analyze practical medical applications of liposomes. This activity should take place after studentslearn about cell membranesand/or learning about physiological feedback processes.
After completing this module, student should be able to:
- Use a reading on liposomes to describe the structure and function of liposomesin short written responses.
- Gather evidence and convince their peerswhy liposomes are important in medicine.
- Use the scientific process to design an experiment and test an experimental question.
- Plot experimental data on a line graph, and analyze data to determine trends.
- Write an experimental report in a Claim-Evidence-Reasoning format.
