  • Brief Description

        Students conducting the following experiment will learn about acids and bases by creating a solution to test for them and by using the Internet to ask questions of scientists and/or to conduct Internet-based research. Students can collaborate with students at other schools either by conducting the experiment synchronously over CU-SeeMe or by exchanging data, information, and observations over email.

        In developing our lessons and activities, we made some assumptions about the hardware and software that would be available in the classroom for teachers who visit the LETSNet Website. We assume that teachers using our Internet-based lessons oractivities have a computer (PC or Macintosh) with the necessary hardware components (mouse, keyboard, and monitor) as well as software (operating system, TCP/IP software,networking or dial-up software, e-mail and a World Wide Web client program, preferably Netscape, but perhaps Mosaic or Lynx). In the section below, we specify any "special" hardware or software requirements for a lesson or activity (in addition to those described above) and the level of Internet access required to do the activity.

    1. Special software requirements: CU-SeeMe (optional).
    2. Internet access: Medium-speed (28,000 BPS via modem), or High-speed (greater than 1 MBPS via network).
