Young scholars calculate the area under a curve. In this calculus lesson plan, students use Riemann sums to find and approximate the area under a curve. They use the derivative and differential equations to solve.

Students analyze and solve word problems. In this algebra lesson, students explore their reasoning skills as they analyze a problems and come up with the correct steps to solve it. They create a plan and execute it correctly.

Students calculate the area of different polygons. For this geometry lesson, students explore polygons based in their shape and number of sides. They find the formula for the area and use each specific formula for each shape.

Students label the fault lines and tectonic plate boundaries on the world map. In this earth science lesson, students simulate ocean floor formation using CEENboTs. They explain the causes of earthquakes.

Students research the unique features of their assigned planet. For this astronomy lesson, students organize their findings and present it to class. They recreate planetary terrain and use CEENBoT to drive over it.

Look at it go. The resource, the third in a series of five using a Roomba, explains the different types of movements a Roomba makes, then challenges pupils to create computer codes that will cause the Roomba to travel specific paths.

It's time to defeat the army of furnace bots. Continuing from the previous episode, the hero of the story must locate and take over the zero bot that controls all of the other furnace bots. Viewers see how writing a program that involves...

Use tissue paper squares to create collage art. Young artists discuss colors as they place and glue each piece of tissue on the paper. Tip: Cut out large basic shapes instead. Have the class create images using the tissue...

How do we know so much about the moon, and how have scientists been able to collect data for analysis? Explore alongside lunar landers, satellites, robotic explorers, and the Apollo 13 astronauts as they photograph, visit, and rove the...

This quick clip shows the chemical gas exchanges that occur during respiration. Despite the robotic voice, this is an accurate and quick display of part of the respiratory process.

Ninth graders create a large scale model of a eukaryotic cell. In this biology lesson, 9th graders identify the different parts and function of the cells by using a robot to navigate through the cell models. They create a video tutorial...

Students complete an activity that illustrates the concepts of giving accurate instructions and computer programming. They also identify the relationship of the instructions/code to computer programming. Students then create a peanut...

Young scholars investigate time. In this investigative lesson, students run through an obstacle course using standard timers. They record the time and apply this knowledge to problems in math. Young scholars record their predictions, and...

Students identify the properties of solids and polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify the different measurements of a triangle. They use congruence parts and theorem to prove their answer.

Fourth graders devise and use problem solving strategies to explore situations mathematically (guess and check, make a drawing, use equipment). The use of logical reasoning is a focus of this lesson.

My forecast is that you'll want to use the resource. Pupils design and create a weather bot as part of a project-based unit. These bots should be able to measure temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, and...

Meant to be a simulation of a deep-sea exploration, this requires that another lesson plan be completed first. In that lesson plan, titled "Animals of the Lost City," marine biology buffs construct murals of benthic communities. In this...

Fifteenth-century hunters used a unique vocabulary to describe the groups of animals they hunted. The video lesson shows many of these informal names. It turns out the names may not be official, but many people use them, including...

Will the real computer please stand up? The premise of this activity is for the class to ask questions to a human and to a computer and to determine which is which. The class asks a given set of questions, and the person playing the role...

Take a step into the International Space Station with an entertaining video that thoroughly details all the going on when astronauts call their home ISS

You needn't take a stress pill or don a space helmet to take a tutorial in artificial intelligence. In fact, HAL might recommend the course with great enthusiasm and confidence for those seeking an introduction to AI.

Implement strategies from the beginning to the end. A collection of strategies and lessons span from the first day of school to after the exam. Resources cover basic information such as computer ethics and top 10 tips to a lesson on how...

Looking to start or support a Gifted and Talented program? An 80-page packet outlines grade-leveled lessons in all subject areas as school district's Gifted and Talented enrichment curriculum.

There's no need to be afraid of artificial intelligence. An educational video describes how humans and AI can work together to solve problems. It looks at Centaur chess, where humans and AI play as a team, and examines ways in which AI...
