Imagine drawing with zeros and ones. The third lesson in a unit of 15 introduces the class to creating black and white images. Pairs get together to create an encoding scheme in order to make these images. They move on to a...

Satellites require rockets to launch, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand them. Future engineers learn about how satellites send data to Earth and how to interpret satellite images. They see how radio waves play a role...

Seventh graders crack a code using binary numbers. In this technology lesson, 7th graders explain how binary codes can represent letters and numbers. They create their own code and exchange them with their classmates.

Students participate in an activity to discover vocabulary necessary for website design. They observe a demonstration of website design using HTML code and then design two simple web pages with specific criteria. The final project allows...

How do computers store and send images? Here's an activity that explains one way a computer can compress image information. Pupils decode run-length coding to produce a black and white image. Pairs then work together to code and...

Learners research and retrieve information from the Internet. They participate in an online quiz. They identify areas of cultural diversity in United States history.

Students develop a pseudo code flowchart for their robotic program. In this physics lesson, students construct a robot that can navigate through certain obstacles. They test their robot and present them to class.

Students build Lego cars with attached light sensors. They program the car to enter a tunnel and reverse out when it records a darker light reading.

Students design a flowchart for their robotic program. In this physics lesson, students construct a robot that can navigate certain obstacles. They present their program and robots in class.
