I did the salt battery demo at Union City Middle School today and it was a success! The students were really excited about the demo and seemed to have a great time reviewing the material afterwards. The level of student involvement was much higher than usual. Normally, there are a few hands that shoot up when I ask a question, but today, the students were excited about answering and taking part. All in all, this experience will motivate me to do more demos and hands-on activities in order to motivate students and make science more "real". It will be interesting to see the results of assessment to determine how effective the review actually was.
