Books with title Computer Science Experiments

We are all aware that students learn a lot more than we teach them directly, and the lessons they learn implicitly are often better absorbed than those that are stud-ied explicitly. This is significant when it comes to "teaching" problem solving. Stu-dents do not become problem solvers by studying problem-solving methodologies. They become problem solvers by solving problems-and not just carefully posed "text-book problems." So I have included numerous problems throughout the text, a few of which are intentionally vague-meaning that there is not a single correct answer. I encourage you to use these and to expand on them.

Does water have skin? Why do marshmallows expand in the microwave? Young scientists will learn the answers to these questions and more through hands-on experiments that are both fun and educational. Readers will be captivated as they see magnetism, forces and motion, materials and reactions, energy, and more come to life right at their fingertips. With experiments designed to complement STEM learning, readers will be encouraged to draw connections between concepts they explore in the classroom and the science they discover in everyday life. Step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations make each experiment easy to follow and enjoy.

What will some scientists do in the name of science? Some are willing to go to extremes even if it means experimenting on their own bodies! They will drink vomit, undergo surgical procedures while awake, or even face a ferocious charging bull if doing so will further their research. This book introduces readers to six scientists, each of whom took science experiments to extremes. Their eerie experiments may have been weird, a little crazy, or just plain gross, but all left a lasting impression. They prove that science is not for the faint of heart, and inspire young minds to think outside of the box.
