Have you ever wondered what military submarines actually do at sea? How they work and what the crew members are living onboard?

In the Episode I, this workshop will first immerse you in an Australian submarine on a mission.

Then, in Episode II, ��we will ask silly questions on submarines… on top of yours:

• What are they for?
• Are they complicated and why?
• Are submarines only for men?
• Why is there red light sometimes on submarines
• Can we see outside?
• How do you find your way underwater?
• Do submarines remain all the time submerged in a mission?
• Where is the power coming from in a submarine? What about Internet?
• What skills do you need to design and maintain a submarine?

The Episode III will see students play a serious board game to design a submarine whilst balancing her against different laws of physics.

The post credit scene will reveal the answer of a mystery component functionality for submarines with which the students would have the session to touch and interact with.

Microscopy in its many forms, is the single most powerful technique available to view cells and bacteria. People skilled in microscopy are sought after to work in both clinical and research laboratories.

In this laboratory exercise, heat-fixed smears of yoghurt culture are stained to reveal the bacteria used to produce commercially available yoghurt. Since bacteria are typically not visible to the naked eye, a compound light microscope is used to view the cell morphology of the bacteria. When viewed using oil immersion at 1000 x total magnification, the size and shape of the stained bacteria is easily seen.
