Students explore the impact of groundwater pollution on health. They examine the carcinogenic contaminants and their possible sources. Students develop methods to lessen or eliminate the pollutants from the environment.

Students are introduced to the concepts involved in technological designs. In groups, they design and build a technology related item using research to backup why they have chosen that specific design. They experiment by varying...

High schoolers are introduced to the concept of biodegradability. In groups, they use the internet to research the types of materials that affect the process. They collect materials from their local community and develop an experiment...

Students listen as the teacher introduces Newton's early discovery of the diffraction of light. They use multiple sources of light (fluorescent, incandescent, sunlight, etc) to bend the light. They first use a prism then a diffraction...

Students are introduced to the topics of electric currents and resistance. In groups, they distinguish the difference between conventional and electron flows and state Ohm's Law for electrical components. They calculate the resistance of...

Students identify the types and extent of human rights violations that occurred in El Salvador . They will also analyze the various laws and statutes that dictate the processes to protect and punish war crimes and human rights...

Students explore the basic skills guiding sound scientific invvestigation and methodology. They are introduced to a powerful scientific tool-the microscope. Students review the parts of the microscope. They discuss the inventor of the...

In this science worksheet, students look for the answers to the problems that are related to the identification of particles that move between different points.

Students study the relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a series circuit.  In this investigative instructional activity students watch a demonstration and see how voltage is measured and see what OHM's law...

Students explore series and parallel circuits. In this physics lesson, students construct a simple circuit and measure its maximum current. They construct their own voltmeter and ammeter that operates at a specified range.

This personal site provides a good basic overview of how to reach schematic drawings.

This game is designed to help students learn the names of some of the schematic symbols they will encounter in electric circuit diagrams.

A useful list of electrical symbols that are used in schematic diagrams. Each symbol is accompanied by its name and a caption stating its function.

A mandala is a schematic diagram that portrays the sacred environment of a particular deity. The mandala is used by practitioners as a guideline for meditation. It helps people visualize the way in which they will restructure the world...

Kids learn about electronic circuits in the science of electricity and physics including schematics, power, ground, components, and the printed circuit board.

In this interactive tutorial, students will analyze series circuits and parallel circuits along with complex circuits composed of elements in series and parallel. Learners will use schematics to help them understand these circuits....

Build circuits with resistors, light bulbs, batteries, and switches. Take measurements with the realistic ammeter and voltmeter. View the circuit as a schematic diagram, or switch to a life-like view.

An electronics kit in your computer! Build circuits with resistors, light bulbs, batteries, and switches. Take measurements with the realistic ammeter and voltmeter. View the circuit as a schematic diagram, or switch to a life-like view....

From the Atomic Archive - the online companion to the award-winning CD-ROM. This page (and the couple that follow from it) describe the use of fusion reactions in a hydrogen bomb. A schematic diagram of an H-bomb is given and discussed....

Describes hybrid vehicles and their contributions to increasing the efficiency of automobiles. Explains the challenges faced by the design team and shows a nice schematic. From a 1995 article.

Discussion of the size and structure of the microtubules in a cell. Links within the text take students to images and schematics.

Students color-code a schematic of a cell and its cell membrane structures. Then they complete the "Build-a-Membrane" activity found at http://learn.genetics.utah.edu. This reinforces their understanding of the structure and function of...

In Lesson 4, students conclude the Research and Revise step of the Legacy Cycle, as they investigate different forms of hybrid engines as well as briefly conclude a look at the different forms of potential energy. Students apply basic...
