This activity provides an opportunity for students to build an understanding of parallel and intersecting lines.

Defines the term and gives a number of detailed examples of its use. Also includes proofreading strategies to try. L.9-10.1a Parallelism

This unusual site actually is a set of articles that first appeared in the Minneapolis Star Tribune, not exactly the place one would expect to find a discourse on parallel structure. Not only is there an interesting discussion of why we...

This site from the Capital Community College defines the term and gives many examples of faulty parallelism and the corrected version of sentences. Includes links to a couple of quizzes at the bottom of the page. "Most of the...

A printable guide with explanations and examples of sentences with and without parallel structure. Requires Adobe Reader. [PDF] L.9-10.1a Parallelism

Provides examples and a video lesson that illustrates parallel and perpendicular lines.

Explore circuits with resistors in parallel and answer questions regarding voltage drops across resistors and currents through them in such circuits.

Parallel structure is a stylistic choice to make verbs in a sentence maintain a pattern.

This lab is designed to have students investigate the relationships between voltage, resistance and current in a parallel circuit with up to three passive components. The batteries in this simulation can be varied from ideal batteries to...

Study selected verses of scripture in parallel columns that compare different versions of the Bible in different languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Russian. Not only a useful tool for students learning another...

Answer questions regarding voltage drops across resistors and currents through them in such circuits. Practice calculating the effective resistances of a set of resistances in series and parallel.

A page for accessing code for a collection of parallel algorithms.The algorithms are implemented in the parallel programming language NESL and developed by the Scandal project. There is a brief description along with its complexity (in...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Presents methods for solving electrical circuit problems where there is a combination of series and parallel circuit features.

For this lesson, students actively investigate the differences between parallel and series circuits and how the brightness of bulbs is affected.

Measuring voltage drops across resistances in series-parallel circuits requires an understanding of both series and parallel circuit behavior. Learn more with this tutorial.

Use the formula for the parallel resistors to calculate the total resistance in series-parallel circuits.

Use Ohm's Law to calculate the current in parallel circuits.

See how this application of Ohm's Law leads to a formula for the total of parallel resistances.

Use your knowledge about the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines to solve some problems. For example, what's the equation of the lineperpendicular to y=3x-3 and passes through the point (-8, -2).

Determine the amount of current that is present in a parallel circuit.

A twenty-question quiz that asks students to choose which sentences are correct and which have errors in parallel structure.

Students are challenged to identify and measure angles created by parallel lines and a transversal as well as complementary and supplementary pairs.

Determine the total energy stored on a group of capacitors in a combination circuit.

This study guide on lines and angles covers key terminology; line notation; parallel, perpendicular, and skew lines; and postulates and theorems about lines. It is available for download with free registration.
