Curated OER
Engineering in a Calculus Classroom
Students solve several differential equations. In this calculus lesson, students test their modulus calculation by testing different weights or beam lengths. They share their findings in class.
Curated OER
Wind, Pressure, Force, Calculus and Engineering Connections
Twelfth graders solve first order differential equations using the separation of variables technique. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders explain the connection between math and engineering. They brainstorm what engineers do in real life.

Stars and Slopes
More of a math lesson than physics or space science, high schoolers take a set of data and plot it on a log-log coordinate system. The write-up for day two was never completed, but day one, "Stars and Slopes," is complex and cohesive....
Curated OER
Differential Equations and Population Growth Lesson
High schoolers calculate the size of the population at a given time, for a population that grows at a rate that is directly proportional to the number of members present in the population. They also calculate the time at which the...

Attributes of Renewable Energy: From Nanopossibilities to Solar Power
High schoolers explore solar energy, why we use it and how we use it. In this renewable energy lesson students compare active and solar techniques.
Curated OER
Seeing Mathematics in the Forces of Nature
Students study waves and their characteristics. In this wave lesson students calculate the speed of waves, wavelength and the period.
Curated OER
Gravity: A Relatively Heavy Subject
Students examine planetary movement and its relation to the tide.In this gravity lesson students describe how and why the high and low tides change every day.
Curated OER
Meiosis
Using yarn and chenille stems, lab groups collaborate to model mitosis and meiosis. Brief background information and a vaguely written procedure comprise this outline. More instruction needs to be provided to learners about cell division...

Kinematics of the Planar Continuum Snake Robot
Students calculate the length of an arc that surrounds an angle at the center of a circle of radius. In this kinetic equations instructional activity students complete a lab and solve a kinematic equation.
Curated OER
Climate and Periodic Functions: Science & Math Integration
High schoolers complete a lab that introduce the scientific concept of climate on Earth. Following the lab, they complete further research on climate. Using average monthly temperatures students construct a mathematical model and analyze...

WHAT HOLDS US TO EARTH?
Young scholars they imagine they are Galileo and try to duplicate Galileo's experiments and results.
Curated OER
Looking for Newton
Students discuss the rhyming pattern of various types of poetry. With a focus on limericks, they follow the specific rhyme scheme and create a limerick about Newton. They share their poem with the class and write another one related to...
