Successful Students
Students at our school are caring, respectful and understand what it takes to succeed.
Over two days, both NAIS Pudong teachers and students, as well as invited students and teachers from international schools in Shanghai and local schools around China attended informative and entertaining space science masterclasses. Taking the teachers and students through a range of interesting and hands-on classes and experiments were:
In Physics, the classes looked at pressure in space and vacuums modelling the effects on cells of being in space. They also learnt about gravity wells and modelled the effect of gravity on solar bodies.
When considering space Biology, teachers and students learnt about ways to identify if there is life on planets. They analysed samples to see if the processes within them were biological (indicating life) or chemical (indicating absence of life). Lecturer Chris Carr conducted a dramatic experiment with a flower and dry ice, shattering the flower to show the impact on living organisms of the extreme conditions found on planets.
In Chemistry, students and teachers looked at the acidification of oceans with carbon dioxide, space propulsion, and comets. The very interactive sessions saw them use readily available lab materials to create the explosive power of jet fuel and to even make their own 'comets'.
