In this sequence worksheet, students compute the first five terms of a sequence and determine whether each sequence converges or diverges. They determine the limits of given sequences. This two-page worksheet contains approximately 45...

In this comparison test worksheet, learners use the comparison test or the limit comparison test to determine if a series is convergent or divergent. They give examples of a series. This two-page worksheet contains seven multiple...

In this interval worksheet, learners determine the interval convergence or divergence of a function. In this two-page worksheet, students complete approximately twelve problems.

In this sequence activity, students determine whether the sequence is convergent or divergent. They find the limit of a given sequence, and solve distance problems. Students explore partial sums of an infinite series and use the...

Five evolution-related questions are answered by beginning biologists on a separate sheet of paper. First, they are asked to list adaptations that allow organisms to survive under various conditions. The second question refers to...

Students examine the principles of electrophoresis. They evaluate both the agarose and polyacrylamide system of molecular separation. In order to bring the concepts of genetics and evolution full circle from DNA to protein, students...

Many people think they can't observe plate tectonics, but thanks to GPS, we know that Australia moves at a rate of 2.7 inches per year, North America at 1 inches per year, and the Pacific plate at more than 3 inches per year! Scholars...

Learners evaluate immigration policies. In this global issues instructional activity, students analyze the long-term goals of divergent immigration policies as they role play the deliberation process. 

What does it mean if young mathematicians cannot put the squeeze on a sequence? Learners investigate a divergent sequence and find the formula for the nth term. Using the definition of a limit of a sequence, pupils try to find the limit...

If you've always wanted to know the perimeter of the state of Oklahoma, now's your chance. A measuring activity has learners use three different sticks to estimate the perimeter of the state. Along the way, they learn how convergent and...

Using origami paper birds, your biology class will experiment with mutations and natural selection to determine wing position, length, and width. It would be helpful to provide a worksheet to go with the activity that includes a...

The University of Hawaii has published a vast collection of midterm and final exams for their Physics 152 course. This particular exam offers a variety of assessment methods, and covers the topic of electromagnetic radiation....

This is a stellar overview of everything light and quantum! There are 30 multiple choice questions, none of them requiring any mathematical computation. There are a few diagrams to analyze: light rays striking reflective and refractive...

In this integration worksheet, students evaluate the divergence or convergence of improper integrals. They explain limits of functions. In this one-page worksheet, students solve six multi-step problems.

The San Andreas fault is one of the longest fault zones in the world. In a series of 20 lessons, the fourth lesson plan has pupils use a paper model to recreate various types of plate faults. Each is held in position then...

Young geologists piece together the puzzle of plate tectonics in an earth science lesson. Given a physical map of the world, they search for land formations that indicate the location of different types of plate boundaries.

A remotely operated vehicle approaching a volcano was engulfed by molten sulfur where the plumes of fluids contained the highest concentrations of aluminum ever recorded. This isn't science fiction or an April fools joke, though it did...

Here is a set of pre-lab, lab, and post-lab lesson plans on plate tectonics. After completing the previous labs on volcanoes and earthquakes, sixth graders use the gained knowledge to explore plate boundaries and the movement of...

Get a detailed look at plate tectonics with a 14-slide presentation that highlights the Earth's layers, continental drift, seafloor spreading, the theory of plate tectonics, and boundary types. Each slide provides thorough...

AP biology buffs define vocabulary terms and answer critical-thinking questions about evolutionary trends. They compare macroevolution to microevolution, differentiate ploidy possibilities, explain isolation barriers, and more....

High schoolers practice using graphing calculators and spreadsheets as they explore numeric limits using sequences and functions. They complete a sequencing worksheet, and determine which sequence corresponds to story a story called...

Here is a plate tectonics interactive that will really move your class! The first of a 13-part series introduces young geologists to the fundamental concepts and vocabulary they need to understand the interactions between...

In this college level calculus worksheet, students use the ratio test to determine if  a seriesconverges or diverges.  The two page worksheet contains six practice problems.  Answers are not included. 

Students investigate volcanic processes at convergent and divergent tectonic plate boundaries. They read and analyze diagrams, complete a worksheet, and write an essay.
