The Formation of Resources

Make sure your scientists are reporting their work effectively by providing them with a reference for their lab reports. The first few pages of this resource detail each element of a lab report, and the last few pages provide an example...

In small groups, energy engineers research and make a topographic map of a marine natural resource. They report to the rest of the class pros and cons of extracting their assigned resource. The two activities may take up to four class...

In this coal formation worksheet, students read and informational sheet about coal formation. Students are given 5 short-answer questions regarding what they've read.

Using this activity, learners could review information they have covered about land forms, such as hills, mountains and plateaus. This 17 question activity could be used with upper elementary or ESL students to test or review information...

Could another object in space have an atmosphere similar to Earth's? In this research project, learners write a paper showing the knowledge they have gained on atmospheric formation by comparing Saturn's moon and Titan's atmosphere to...

Begin with the third slide to help earth science learners investigate one of our most valuable natural resources: soil. Straightforward and fact-filled slides define soil, describe its formation and composition, and explore reclamation...

In this chemistry video, Sal takes a closer look at what happens to the change in enthalpy during a chemical reaction. He points out that the enthalpy change, given constant pressure, becomes the heat added to the system at that constant...

How was our solar system and earth formed? Sal hypothesizes that a Supernova was most likely the catalyst that spawned our sun and consequently our solar system. He thoroughly explains the formation of the moon and the Earth using a...

A very scientific explanation of urine production is given in this resource. The video zooms to the nephron level in the kidneys and discusses milliosmoles and the loop of Henle. Use this video for an advanced course in medicine or anatomy.

Derek Owens sketches as he teaches image formation in a plane mirror. When you look at an image in a mirror, it appears as if it is behind the mirror. Mirrors create a virtual image as opposed to a real image. This educational resource...
