Curated OER
It's a Crash Test, Dummy
Middle schoolers use the internet to research air bags in cars and trucks. In groups, they discover air bags history and the safety issues surrounding them. They create their own design of a new air bag and test it using a raw egg in...
Curated OER
Gwynns Falls
Middle schoolers investigate the question: What is the impact of urban development and expansion on the health of a decidious forest ecosystem and humans? They examine the issue of land development by responding to a specific scenario...
Curated OER
Presentation of Research with HyperStudio
Students report information about a Michigan native animal in a Hyperstudio stack. They gain interest from the animals that they chose from lesson 1 by using the software.
Curated OER
Ground Level Ozone Testing
Students prepare Shoenbein Paper to test the ground level of ozone. They dip a strip of their test paper in distilled water and hang it at a data collection site. They determine the relative humidity of the data collection site. Using a...
Curated OER
Developing a Local Stratigraphy
Students examine rock strata for the distribution, deposition, and age of sedimentary rock. They describe rock types in a variety of outcrops and construct a regional stratigraphy.
Curated OER
Zebrafish as a Model for Muscle Development
Students explore the steps of protein synthesis in zebrafish. They view video clips to identify the parts of a zebrafish and observe them as they sequence the developmental stages. In groups they identify the muscles and how proteins are...
Curated OER
Palace for Pill Bugs
Young scholars build a palace fit for pill bugs. For this experimental design lesson, students design an experiment to determine which shelter is preferred by the pills bugs. Young scholars are creating a testable hypothesis,...
Curated OER
Concentrations of Solutions
Students solve problems involving the molarity of a solution. In this solutions lesson students calculate the molarity and mole fraction of a solution and solve problems involving mass and volume.
Curated OER
Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy
Students calculate the values of electron binding energies. In this physics instructional activity, students solve for different wavelength characteristics of X-rays. They present their findings to the class.
Curated OER
Automated Vehicle Programming Design
Students design a program to make an automated vehicle perform a specific task. In this robotics lesson plan, students play the role of scientists competing to win a factory's contract. They present their algorithm to class.
Curated OER
Numerical Determination of Drag Coefficients
Students create a video of an object falling with a drag. In this physics lesson, students calculate drag coefficient using data from Logger Pro. They calculate velocity and acceleration of the object.
