Combining computational modeling with real-world data analysis

Unit Overview

Ink spread in water
Task 1: How does ink spread in water?
Create a model

Description

Students investigate and model how and why ink spreads at different speeds in more quickly in hot and than cold water. They will analyze experimental data and program a MoDa model to explain the trends. The MoDa model will be based on video data from the experiment.
