What are the scientists measuring? What instrument is used in this picture?
Investigation • What does a Geiger counter measure? • What does it mean if the Geiger counter is making more clicking sounds? • What is meant by “Counts per minute” or “Counts per second”? • What is a microSievert per hour?
iLab Reactivity Learning Objectives • Students will create a model of the radiation levels based on data from the Fukushima video, and use this type of model to predict the radiation levels at 1 km from the power plant. • The purpose of the iLab is to gather data to allow a model to be created.
