My Project

Welcome to DEEP! I am a gifted and talented specialist that has the honor to excite amazing minds, and I was hoping you could help. I love teaching chemistry to my students but find that it can be an intangible concept when talking about the periodic table and elements, particularly gases. I would love to show them the magic that happens when an electric current is passed through various elements, then tie that it with our other units such as the quantum physics of light and red/blue shifting in astronomy. If you’re so inclined, your support in obtaining these spectrum tubes would be so appreciated. Thank you.
