ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

It's not really photosynthesis... but at the Educators Showcase at the ASTC
Conference (and again at an educators open house last night) I saw Don
Salvatore of the Museum of Science in Boston show a keen set-up that let you
compare plants that had been deprived of carbon dioxide to those which had
their normal CO2 diet.
[side note: dag, MOS has cool toys!]
Perhaps you could do a series of plant-growing variable exhibits... ie
here's plants with CO2/without, with sunlight/without, that have been given
varying amounts of water etc.
