Curated OER
An Introduction to Sensors
Students research the International System (SI) of units of measurements. They make measurements using the metric system. They study key concepts used in building and use of sensors, how sensors work and their role in measuring...

Aircraft Trajectory Problem Set
Students read text from a NASA Web-based textbook then demonstrate an understanding of the text by using it to complete an activity on aircraft trajectories.

Angles: Angles, Angles, Everywhere
Middle schoolers estimate and accurately measure the size of angles communicate with the appropriate geometric terms and symbols to describe and name angles, lines, line segments, rays
Curated OER
Worksheet 21 Spring 1996
In this math learning exercise, learners consider a path around the unit circle parameterized by σ on the interval [0, 1] with σ(t) = sin(5πt − π), cos(5πt − π). Then they find the vector.

#22 Frames of Reference: The Basics
Learners explore the concept of frames of reference in physics.
Curated OER
Rocket Physics
Pupils investigate the relationship between impulse, momentum, kinetic and potential energy and aerodynamic drag. In this physics lesson, students calculate data taken from launching a rocket. They compare the theoretical and actual...

Measuring the Speed of a Wave
Young scholars create an experiment in which they measure the speed of a wave and record the data in a graph. They work in small groups to write the procedure for the experiment and share it with another group for cross checking of the...

Vectors
Young scholars differentiate distance and displacement. In this physics lesson, students use formulas to calculate for displacement. They draw vectors using the grid.
