Examples of multiplication and division of limits with the solutions.

You might think that plants and animals have little in common with batteries, springs, or slingshots, but they actually do have something in common. Both living and non-living things store and transfer energy from one form to another. In...

The tutorial investigates numerical and graphical approaches to calculating the limit of a function. Examples with detailed solutions are included.

This resource provides strategies to use with students who struggle with changes in transitions and daily routines. Examples of changes in routines are provided, along with visual strategies and social stories. These tools may be used...

Learn about self-directed learning and the 3 models provided: facilitated learning groups, community learning, and self-directed development programs. Each model is discussed in detail with links to a plethora of related resources.

Students will use manipulatives that represent the ingredients for S'mores (graham crackers, marshmallows, chocolate bar) to determine the limiting and excess reactants (reagents) for making S'mores. The students will extend this to...

When an earthquake occurs, seismic shock waves travel out through the earth from the source of the event. The shock waves travel through the earth (body waves), or along the Earth's surface (surface waves), and can be recorded at remote...

In this applet, rolling of dice is studied. The number that lands face "up" on the die is graphed as the die is rolled repeatedly. The user begins to see, with increased accuracy, the standard normal curve appearing as the graph.

Great article that discusses the recent Supreme Court case dealing with affirmative action and college admission (University of Michigan Cases). Includes links to other resources as well as discussion and activities for parents and...

Work is about finding a way to effectively complete a task. Many new Assistive Technology (AT) devices are available to help people get work done by new means, such as by dictating text to a voice recognition program, or by having...

This lesson introduces students to some basic ideas the Framers used in creating the kind of government they thought would best protect the natural rights of each individual and promote the good of all. At the end of the lesson, students...

Overview of the foreign policy of the Nixon administration with a focus on China, the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty with the U.S.S.R., and Vietnam.

Examines mass media and its relationship with society. In the past, it was a one-way relationship and mass media influenced society. Now it works in both directions, with society providing feedback to and influencing mass media. The...

This lesson begins with a PowerPoint slideshow that covers important ecological concepts about biomes, limiting factors, carrying capacity, and population growth. Students will look at the population dynamics involved with the diversity...

This exercise has five objectives: to find out how big the gap between rich and poor is, to learn a little more about the issues facing people with limited access to food around the world and the features and extent of malnutrition, to...

This learning module focuses on the types of point of view, how the point of view impacts the description of events, and the impact of the types of narrators. It provides an example with an explanation and a practice activity with...

The easiest method of organizing data is a frequency distribution, which converts raw data into a meaningful pattern for statistical analysis. Learn how in this tutorial with examples.

This site is primarily set up as an outline and is loaded with graphs, maps, and images. It covers a variety of earthquake-related topics, such as what causes earthquakes, fault lines and structures, seismology, a historical look at...
