Introducting the Concept of Medical Ecology

Would you want to visit the pizza moon? Io is known as the pizza moon because of the multiple colors of the lava deposited over its surface. In the lesson, scholars practice a model for predicting Jupiter radio storms using the central...

As of April, 2016, more than 28,000 suspected cases of Ebola were recorded in Western Africa with over 11,000 human deaths. Classes discuss the Ebola virus outbreak in 2014 and then groups develop an action plan based on...

How can you describe heat of fusion in a way the class understands and relates the importance of this concept to present day issues? For this third lesson of the series, learners conduct an experiment, demonstrating the flow of heat...

Several times throughout history, groups of soldiers marching in rhythm across a suspension bridge have caused it to collapse. Scholars experiment with pendulums, resonance, and force to determine why this would happen. First, pupils...

Students examine biodiversity and interrelatedness concepts.  In this ecology activity students go on a field trip and fill out a data sheet. 

In an interdisciplinary exploration, trace the development of West Nile fever and Lyme diseases. Pupils discover how these diseases are contracted. They collect statistical data and analyze trends.

High schoolers are introduced to the concept of circular motion. In groups, they participate in experiments to discover the law of inertia. They describe how forces act on objects during a circular motion. To end the lesson, they use...

Students study the concept of periodic motion and relate it to the movement of a pendulum. They discover that the period of a pendulum is dependent on the length of the pendulum and independent of the bob and the amplitude.

Pupils explore the concepts of rotational equilibrium. They examine the history Alexander Calder and his mobiles. Students solve simple algebraic equations. They predict, draw conclusions, graph equations and examine the rotational...

Students investigate the flow of electricity and how it effects different objects in the classroom as being classified as an insulator or conductor. They work in teams to test the conductivity of different classroom objects after making...
