Curated OER
Red Shift, Blue Shift
Middle schoolers demonstrate how stellar spectra measures a star's motion relative to Earth along the line of sight.
Curated OER
Capturing Renewable Energy
Students watch a video segment on the engineering design process, then design a storage system for renewable energy. Students brainstorm and research ways in which renewable energies such as solar and wind power can be stored.

Radius, Diameter and Area
Students identify the radius and diameter of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the volume and area of a cylinder and circle. They relate the circumference of a circle to Pi.

Converting Metric Units and Prefixes
Learners investigate the length of various objects. In this measurement instructional activity, students convert one metric unit to another. They explain the importance of a uniform system of measurement.
Curated OER
Blade Design Challenge
Students identify the differences between non-renewable and renewable energy sources. They construct a PVC wind turbine and design a set of blades to extract as much energy as possible from low and high wind conditions.
Curated OER
Motor Control AC Voltage
Students demonstrate that motors work on two different voltages. They connect a single-phase AC motor to run on different voltages.
