USING REMOTE SENSING TO
DETERMINE TOPOGRAPHY
Kit #444S — Developed by SEPUP

Students use a 3-D model to construct contour lines and
create a topographic map of an area . This experience provides
them with a basic understanding of the relationship between
contour lines on a topographic map and the actual “lay of the
land .”
Accommodates unlimited classes, each with 6 groups of four students.

COPPER MINING AND EXTRACTION

Kit #440S — Developed by SEPUP
Copper and other raw materials contribute to our
technological lifestyle, but the by-products of extracting
copper from ore are potential toxic wastes . In this activity,
students explore the properties of copper and copper ore .
They conduct two reactions used to extract and recover
copper from the ore .
This process introduces single and double replacement
reactions . Students also consider the wastes produced by the
extraction process .
Accommodates 8 groups of four students.

INTRODUCTION TO RADIOACTIVITY
AND HALF LIFE
Kit #450
The general concepts of radioactivity and half-life are
explored using the material in this Lab-Aids kit . Using
simulated plastic radioactive atoms, each student conducts
a series of activities that provide graphable data .
Students then perform a series of calculations measuring
Carbon 14, a radioactive carbon which has been used to
date plant and animal remains . Students can easily grasp the
general concept of radioactivity and half-life determination
through this kit .
Accommodates unlimited classes, each with 15 groups of two
students.
