Curated OER
Palm use in Chemistry
Students use a Palm loaded with chemistry software to assist them in gaining information presented in a lesson about basic chemistry principles. They perform a basic chemistry demonstration for their class using information from received...
Curated OER
On the Microbe Trail: Bacteria and Aseptic Technique
Learners pour, label, streak, seal and store plates in an incubator. They identify areas in their environment that provide a rich fauna of microbes once they have been swabbed. They identify areas of contamination through a laboratory...
Curated OER
Inquiry-based Investigations into Pond Water Microorganisms
Students become familiar with common microorganisms and experience exploring the microbial world.
Curated OER
Monitoring Energy Expenditure
Students use heart rate monitors and complete a swimming and running test. These tests allow students to obtain personal data, to manipulate the data through calculations of various parameters, and to graphically represent the data.
Curated OER
Flour Beetles
Young scholars observe life stages in flour beetles and graph the results. They write a summary report.
Curated OER
Investigating the Earth-Moon-Sun System
Eighth graders research Native American legends involving the sun, moon, and stars and compare them to the origin of present day knowledge. They create a written report and make an oral presentation of their findings to the class.
Curated OER
Reflections
Students are given materials with various textures and light sources to investigate specular reflection, diffuse, reflection, angle of incidence, and angle of reflection. Students draw and label an everyday scenario showing specular and...
Curated OER
Territorial Behavior in Crickets
Students explore the behavior of crickets during courtship. They measure the number and types of interactions between household crickets. Students discriminate between quantitative and qualitative observations. They collect data to...
Curated OER
SEM/EDS Beach Sands
Students pose a question that can be answered using the SEM and sand they collected from beach profiles. Then, they use the SEM to answer their question or test their hypothesis. Students design a small testable project and demonstrate...
Curated OER
Project Geode
Learners predict the appearance of a geode's internal structure based on its mass and density. They form a hypothesis based on the data they collect. They also identify common minerals found in Illinois.
Curated OER
Separation of Unknowns in a Liquid
Students identify the different components of a given sample using chromatography. In this chemistry lesson, students compare paper and column chromatography. They collect data and construct data tables.
Curated OER
Epidemiology: Graphing and Analyzing Health Data
Young scholars graph data on fetal and infant mortality rates collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. They identify trends in the data and propose potential causes for the trends.
