Learn all about marine mammals at this fun site from the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis. Explore different species, learn about migration, gather and graph marine data, and more.

An investigation that is part of a series of lab lessons that expose learners to Earth Systems through research, data, and visulazations. This lab specifically has students using a database to gather and graph data to understand the role...

Students use ultrasonic sensors and LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robots to emulate how bats use echolocation to detect obstacles. They measure the robot's reaction times as it senses objects at two distances and with different sensor threshold...

Through 10 lessons and more than 20 hands-on activities, students are introduced to the concept of an environment and the many interactions within it. As they learn about natural and human-made environments, as well as renewable and...

Students use the CBR 2 to gather distance and time data for various walking speeds. They observe the effect of change in direction and speed of motion on distance versus time graphs. Students interpret and analyze graphs, calculate slope...

[Free Registration/Login Required] A basic premise of science is that much of the physical world can be described mathematically and many physical phenomena are predictable. This scientific outlook took place in Europe during the late...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart is designed to explore the probability of rolling certain values using the dice tool. By the end of this lesson, the students will have gathered experimental data, made hypothesis about...

Third graders gather simple data, represent it on a bar graph, and answer simple, complex, and open-ended questions about the data.

A physics lab activity where students gather data from classmates running at different rates on a football field. They then share their gathered data and transfer it to a graphing program to ultimately calculate average velocity.

Practice using the graph to answer questions about the mean, median, mode and range. Read the interactive quiz rules and then click on the "Begin" ticket. If you answer incorrectly you get one more chance to try again then you are told...
