Pupils explore the types of media that U.S. teens prefer the ways in which viewers identify and account for journalistic bias. They explore the ways in which media shapes one's opinion or affects their judgment.

In this multiplication worksheet, students multiply 24 problems involving hundreds and thousands.  Students determine the correct number of zeros for the product of two factors.

Students explore the expanding universe.  In this science lesson, students use balloons to model the expansion of the universe. Students take measurements of the balloon expansion and answer questions directed to develop their...

Students study star charts and describe locations of objects.  For this scientific models lesson students use coordinates and identify characteristics. 

In this health worksheet, students find the words that are in the word search puzzle that focus upon the vocabulary that is from the theme of the sheet.

Students explore genetic engineering and issues related to risks and benefits of altering agricultural products.

In this Advent calendar craft worksheet, students use the patterns and follow the directions to make a decorated Advent calendar.

Learners identify constellations with and without a constellation finder.  In this creating constellations instructional activity students construct a constellation finder to help them to identify the constellations. 

Students draw constellations. In this astronomy instructional activity, students create constellations from star groupings projected on a chalk board. Students connect the "stars" to create a pattern on the board. Student can create new...

This unit includes two sequential lessons. In the first, students create mobile apps that collect data from an Android device's accelerometer and then store that data to a database. This lesson provides practice with MIT's App Inventor...

Students develop an app for an Android device that utilizes its built-in internal sensors, specifically the accelerometer. The goal of this activity is to teach programming design and skills using MIT's App Inventor software (free to...

Students work through an online tutorial on MIT's App Inventor to learn how to create Android applications. Using those skills, they create their own applications and use them to collect data from an Android device accelerometer and...

Students prepare for the associated activity in which they investigate acceleration by collecting acceleration vs. time data using the accelerometer of a sliding Android device. Based on the experimental set-up for the activity, students...

Students conduct an experiment to study the acceleration of a mobile Android device. During the experiment, they run an application created with MIT's App Inventor that monitors linear acceleration in one-dimension. Students use an...

Students investigate the motion of a simple pendulum through direct observation and data collection using Android devices and the AccelDataCapture app.

A website with 14 links plus a quiz on how to use an Android Operating System and keep it running well. Topics include Android News, All About Android, and Extras.

Based on their experience exploring the Mars rover Curiosity and learning about what engineers must go through to develop a vehicle like Curiosity, students create Android apps that can control LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robots, simulating the...

Students gain experience with the software/system design process, closely related to the engineering design process, to solve a problem. First, they learn about the Mars Curiosity rover and its mission, including the difficulties that...
