Welcome to the Phenomena Farm!
Science is full of amazing, real-world mysteries - like why some plants can survive in pure air without soil, how trees "talk" to each other through underground fungal networks, or why adding too much fertilizer actually kills plants instead of helping them grow. We're on a mission to discover which of these natural phenomena sparks the most curiosity in students, and we need your input. Think of this as helping us build a "curiosity map" - showing us which scientific mysteries make you want to dig deeper and learn more.
Our Approach: We've gathered real scientific scenarios with actual data and images around five different phenomena areas. Your job is simple: tell us what makes you curious. There are no right or wrong answers, just honest reactions about what catches your attention and makes you want to know more.
Students: Your responses help us create learning materials that focus on the stuff you find interesting, rather than what adults think you should find interesting.
Educators: This data reveals which phenomena work best as "hooks" to pull students into deeper scientific thinking and drive genuine inquiry in your classroom.
