Iron Science Teacher June 25, 2011

This summer, tune into the Iron Science Teacher Live Webcast and cheer on the competitors in this zany science cook-off, where teachers compete before a live Exploratorium audience for the sought-after "Iron Science Teacher" title. Parodying the cult Japanese TV program, "Iron Chef," this competition showcases science teachers as they devise classroom activities using a particular ingredient—an everyday item such as a plastic bag, milk carton, or nail.
