Eighth graders design and perform an experiment that uses a Universal Indicator Color Guide to measure the strength of acids and bases. They also determine happens when acids and bases are mixed together. They decide which of three...

Students construct a "voting booth" to gather data using RCX programmable brick and touch sensors. They identify a survey question, construct the booth, and analyze the results by uploading data.

Eighth graders experiment what happens when acids and bases are mixed together. In this acids and bases experimental lesson plan, 8th graders decide which of three solutions of unknown pH will neutralize a fourth solution of unknown pH....

Pupils measure the temperature of three water sources. They collect data points every second for twenty five seconds for each sample using Lego Robolab temperature sensors, complete a worksheet, and analyze the data.

Students understand some of the problems faced by the uninsured through data collection and explore possible sollutions for those problems.

Students investigate and experiement with a 9-volt motor. They will use the connecting wire and battery pack to discover fans.

Students work together to complete the Biome EcoWatch project. Using the Internet, they research the relationship between abiotic factors and living organisms within a biome. They create a multimedia presentation to share their...

Sixth graders identify and draw two-dimensional representations of a three-dimensional object. Students investigate the views of an object and determine that three views are required (front, one side and the top). Students use these...

Students design and draw circuits with batteries, small light bulbs and common household conductors. They build and test the circuit then modify it so someone who couldn't use their hands could turn the circuit on and off.

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.

Young scholars use their imagination. They discuss the 4 C's of teamwork: Concentration, Communications, Coomperation, and Consideration. Students discuss the safety guidelines of the project. They complete a rope maze. The group walks...

Students explain the "So what?"-or the international implications-of factors that indicate the developmental status of a nation.

Students gain appreciation of the vastness of our galaxy by viewing an applet about the Milky Way. Students hypothesize about how long it would take to get from Earth to Pluto.

Young scholars write a persuasive essay about the choices in the energy debate. They comprehend the environmental consequences that accompany the decision. Students predict how they will power their future.

Students, working in pairs, are presented with the problem. They are asked to design modular houses using four cubic modules, all the same size, which touch each other on complete faces. They must draw each of their houses on isometric...

Students explain the components of the engineering design process. In groups, they identify the materials that make concrete and practice curing cement using the various methods available. They develop a graph showing the amount of...

Students solve problems by discovering the eigenvalues that satisfy design questions. They explain how relaxing a small angle approximation can change the solution. Students apply the numerical model of pendulumm motion to solve the...

Students research, predict and offer solutions regarding factors that affect current or future food crops could result in economic, political or social changes.

Students work together to build a music box. They create figures that move when a song plays. They answer discussion questions to complete the instructional activity.

Fifth graders identify and solve problems where railway safety is involved. They defend their solutions based on current safety information.

Students develop a pseudo code flowchart for their robotic program. In this physics lesson, students construct a robot that can navigate through certain obstacles. They test their robot and present them to class.

Learners explore the everyday implications of system failure and to challenge students to identify the causes of system failure.

Students construct a bridge that can hold 100 pennies. In this math lesson, students evaluate the strength of their bridges. They predict how much weight a bridge can hold based on its design.

Students build Lego cars with attached light sensors. They program the car to enter a tunnel and reverse out when it records a darker light reading.
