Kennon, James Tillman; Fong, Bryant; Grippo, Anne – Science Activities: Classroom Projects and Curriculum Ideas, 2016
Sunscreens have different levels of protection, measured most commonly with the sun protection factor (SPF). Students initially believed higher SPF factors mean greater sun protection and learned through this activity that higher SPF does not mean greater protection. Students analyzed the amount of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) protection and…
