Joule Fellow: Tammy Cohen

This is a video 2 students made of a chemical reaction – the change happens at the end. I did this as part of the DaVinci program as part of the hydrogen fuel cell car project. Students “engineer” the reaction to proceed faster and then slower. I was unaware of this reaction until I participated in the Joule and DaVinci programs.

I still have students do the solar cell engineering project where they maximize and minimize current, voltage, and power using multimeters, LED lights, small motors, and small incandescent lights. I wish I had more pictures, but I really need 100% of my attention on my students during lab activities and really can’t risk taking my eyes off them even for the moment it would take to snap a quick picture.
