This program will produce the blackbody radiation curve for one or two objects when the student inputs the temperature(s) in kelvin. The program will also display on the curve the peak frequency and wavelength when one object is selected.

In this activity, students will determine the average speed of a falling object. They will observe whether or not changing the mass and keeping the same shape have an effect on the average speed of the object.

In this activity, Students can use a Force Sensor to measure the force needed to lift an object and the force needed to pull the same object up an inclined plane. They will also calculate work done and efficiency and make conclusions.

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to the Knapsack Problem, a discrete mathematics situation in which a knapsack is to be filled with a series of objects, each with various weights, sizes, or...

Students will estimate various dimensions of objects located in a classroom. After estimations are completed, students will measure objects using appropriate measuring techniques for preciseness.

In this simulation, investigate the force between charged objects. Rank three charged objects of different magnitudes, then create a method to determine the ranking of the charge magnitudes. Finally, devise a new method of determining...

When an explosion occurs in the equatorial plane of a revolving black hole objects are released. This simulation illustrates the orbits of those objects in Kerr metric.

Take a look at general relativity with this science simulation illustrating orbits of objects that are the result of an explosion near a black hole measured in Schwarzschild metric. Users are able to adjust the energy from the exploding...

Here is a simulation demonstrating an object placed on an inclined plane. The user will vary the slope of the plane to see the relationship the slope has on the gravity of the object and the static friction.

The objective of this lesson is to have students determine the scale of a model when compared to the actual object. They will measure parts of the actual object and then compare the corresponding part of the model to determine the scale...

Students will calculate the diameter, circumference, and ratio of a real world object. Students will create an electronic slideshow to illustrate the process of determining the diameter, circumference, and ratio of these objects.

Just how tall is that object? In this lesson, students will participate in an outdoor group activity using shadows to extend their knowledge of proportions to solve problems dealing with similarity. The cooperative learning groups will...

In this lesson, students will observe literary elements and devices in a variety of chapter books. Students will be paired with a partner and allowed to choose one book to identify literary elements. Using digital cameras and a computer,...

Students will identify objects as translucent, transparent, or opaque. Upon seeing the shadow of the opaque object, students will identify the geometric figure created by the shadow.This lesson plan was created as a result of the Girls...

This investigation uses Cabri Jr. and a cleaver rotation of a triangle to "prove" that the angles in a triangle add up to 180. This could be used to reinforce triangles and paralled lines as well as introduce the concept of rotating an...

In this activity, students will collect data by measuring different linear objects and develop a strategy to determine the conversion factors required to convert from one linear measurement to another.
