A digital flip. Introduce your classes to cryptographic protocols using and, or, and not gates. Groups create a complete circuit to convert a binary number into another one. This type of one-way function allows pupils to...

High school physical scientists collide with motion. They work in pairs to design a paper car that will protect a raw egg during a head-on collision. Measurements of distance traveled, time of run, vehicle specs, and photo gate flags are...

Microchips are a man-made wonder. Investigate the manufacturing wonder with a hands-on inquiry-based lesson. Scholars simulate the process of pattern transfer using photoresist. Their conclusion identifies how their process replicates...

"Quantum-dot Cellular Automata" (QCAs) can serve as memory cells and wires. This lab describes how QCAs can be made into MAJORITY, OR, AND, and INVERTER logic gates.

Understand what a field effect transistor does as the building blocks of modern electronic devices. The module has several simulations that explore properties of the field effect transistor. Students will learn about logic gates as well...
