| We worked with fifth grade students from the Horace Mann Laboratory School in Salem, Massachusetts. The students made biodiesel from various types of vegetable oil. They tested the biodiesel in a bomb calorimeter and/or a diesel engine. These activities were part of a presentation about renewable energy resources. This outreach supports the state learning standards for physical science in grades 3 to 5 which call for students to identify forms of energy and recognize that energy can cause motion. |
