Sensors, Sensors…..Everywhere! Middle School Meteorologist Create Weather Bots!
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...
Curated OER
Boyle's Law
Students create a piston/cylinder assembly using SolidWorks. In this technology instructional activity, students calculate volume, pressure and Boyle's law constant. They simulate equalizing air pressure by moving the piston out of the...
Curated OER
Potato Chips Fragility
Students investigate why some potato chips crumple faster than others. In this physics lessons, students relate the cooking time to potato's fragility. They write a lab report about their findings.
