Jump onto the MeriSTEM Website and find activities and videos for plant cell biology, phylogenetics and the technology and step-by-step analysis of photosynthesis rate of different plants.
On Monday the 5th of August the ACR Training Centre for Future Crops Development and MeriSTEM hosted a full day event, giving science students from the ACT and surrounds the chance to take a deep dive into Crop Science and related technologies.
From each workshop that was held that day, MeriSTEM has created informative videos and hands-on activities. Each video has a reseacher from the ACR Training Centre for Future Crops Development giving an account of their research and/or a description of a technique that is used in their field and has a related activity to do in the classroom. There resources are best suited to highschool science and senior Biology, senior Earth and Environmental Science and Agricultural Science students.
Video topics are:
1. Gas diffusion in Plants
2. Plant Microscopy
3. Rate of Photosynthesis
4. Meet the scientists studying phylogenetics.
