Families Learning Science Together

In collaboration with the Cornell Center for Materials Research and the Ithaca Public Library, members of the group have been participating in the monthly series Families Learning Science Together.  Themes range from "the science of bridge building" to "junk box experiments."  Each month a new set of activities is available for children and parents to engage in together.  Stop by the Ithaca library and ask about when the next event is scheduled. 

Iron Physicist

Based on the successful Iron Physicist contest held at the Exploratorium, the Cohen group ran a similar contest for the Cornell physics graduation. We split the graduates into groups and gave each group an ingredient. Each group had one week to come up with a physics demo that uses that ingredient. View the movie above to see what they came up with.

The video can be found on Cornell's website here.
