Example Showcase

See some creative examples of ways faculty at GW are teaching their students.

RGB ratios of the red cabbage pH indicator as a function of pH. R:G, G:B, and B:R ratios are shown as the red, green, and blue lines, with pH values indicated above the close circles. The three open squares show the R:G (red), G:B (green), and B:R (blue) ratios of a sample analyzed by a student, indicating the pH was approximately 7.4-7.6.1.

The objective of this lesson is to equip learners with the essential skills to proficiently use Adobe Photoshop to process and create a calibration curve.
