Nuclear Energy Projects

Ms. Braun's Integrated Chemistry classes researched different aspects of nuclear energy before Christmas. They used library and web resources to research the answers to a variety of related questions, ultimately producing infographics to show what they learned, and sharing them with others in the class. Here is a sample of what they produced. Notice how they cited their sources and included the sources they used at the bottom of the infographics.

People who do not admit they have any bias are most susceptible.
