Curated OER
Using the Clinometer
In this clinometer worksheet, students measure the altitude of ten objects using a clinometer. They answer questions about calibrating a clinometer and measuring with a clinometer.

High School Mathematics Problems from Alaska: Problem Setup and Pattern Recognition: Sunrise in Barrow, Alaska
Students make predictions using given data, writing a linear equation from given data, and using a linear equation to predict later behavior.
Curated OER
Coordinates
Young scholars use cartesian coordinates (x,y,z) in 3-dimensional space. [Optional: appreciate there exist two ways of defining the z axis, and which of them is used.] They become familiar with the tools and terms used by surveyors.
Curated OER
Astronomy With a Stick
Young scholars find the altitude of the Sun at 10 A.M., at solar noon, and at 2 P.M. by measuring the height of the gnomon and the length of the shadow at each time. They record the measurements in their notebooks for later conversion.
Curated OER
Satellite Tracker
Young scholars use satellite tracking software to monitor different satellites. They predict and graph the motion of the space station. They create a 3-D display of its path and share it with the class.
Curated OER
Big Apple, Here We Come
Students role play the role of immigrants coming to America for the first time. They complete an imaginary trip with their family and must rent a car and make seven stops along the way. They calculate distances and use maps to...

Angular Solution of Hydrogen Atom
Students participate in an angular solution of hydrogen activity. Using this activity, students also illustrate eigenvalue problems applied in mathematics. They explore Schrodinger's equation and particle wave duality.
