An Introduction to the Natural Logarithm (ln)
Students explore the dose response principle, an introduction to what the "natural log" (ln) is and how it behaves. They create and analyze a dose response graph.
Curated OER
Reciprocals of Quadratic Functions
Eleventh graders investigate inverse functions. For this Algebra II lesson, 11th graders use their prior knowledge of linear, exponential,and quadratic functions to create a graph of an equation they have never seen before.
Curated OER
The Nucleus / Nuclear Reactions and Elementary Particles
Students describe how radioactivity relates to alpha and beta particles. Using their properties, they write a descriptive paper about the gamma rays and alpha and beta particles. They calculate q-values and the half-life of a given...
