For the last five years, Oakland Community College has sponsored a one-day community outreach program called "A Science Day for Kids". The program is meant to stimulate the curiosity of students aged 6-13 in the sciences and present opportunities for them to explore several different sciences in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. In this paper we describe a laboratory experience with liquid nitrogen that youngsters find especially exciting.
Our Secondary School editors work hard to distill all the JCE materials to produce a fraction of particular interest to high school teachers. We call it CLIC.
In recent years we have worked hard to better match our advertisers with our readers. When shopping for chemistry education materials, visit our advertisers' WWW sites first.
Take JCE along on your outreach missions. Copies of the Journal, guest access to JCE Online, our publications catalog, and more are available for your participants.
