100 Add-On Questions for The Fermi Project, By Far My Most Popular Resource
The Fermi Project is as much fun for teachers as it is for those students that embrace it.

The other half is that this is a REALLY good skill to teach our students. It requires problem solving skills, critical thinking skills, research skills, but overall the major skill therein is making educated guesses and how we learn to truly make them EDUCATED guesses.
