What Are Atoms?

Fall 2021 Wonder Challenge: What Are Atoms?
This video was created for the Wonder Challenge for the Fall 2021 Environmental Science, Politics, and Policy course taught by Dr. Kwame Owusu-Daaku at the University of West Florida. We partnered with Elizabeth Eubanks and 6th grade students from Dixon School of Arts and Sciences. We created a video answering the question posed by the 6th graders “I wonder… what is an atom?”
Our video explains what atoms are and how they were discovered. We explain how atoms make up everything we know, including ourselves. John Dalton’s work involving Atomic Theory, and his struggles trying to get his work accepted are discussed, as well as what the Atomic Theory includes.
