Physical science, ethnobotany

Physical science explored the heat conductivity of common hardware store bought materials. The thermometers were the only off-island item used in this laboratory.



The ethnobotany class visited the Pohnpei State Botanic Garden at Pwunso. Here the class posed for a class picture in front of a painted gum tree, Eucalyptus deglupta.



Field trips are a fun way to learn!



The professor expounds on a gymnosperm found only in the garden. The tree is thought to be a kauri pine, Agathis robusta.
