The scientific method keeps you from believing only what you want to believe — it expands your mind. The lesson introduces the eight steps in the scientific process and how to design an experiment to biology scholars. Live insects...

True or false — Double Stuf Oreos always contain twice as much cream as regular Oreos. Scholars first measure the masses of the filling in regular Oreos and Double Stuf Oreos to generate a class set of data. They use hypothesis testing...

Introduce the concept of matrices with a pre-designed instructional activity. Learners watch video lessons to learn the ins and outs of adding, subtracting, and multiplying matrices. Using provided problems, they practice each operation...

Won't the other properties be sad to learn that they're not the most important? The 11th installment of a 35-part module is essentially a continuation of the previous lesson, using logarithm tables to develop properties. Scholars...

Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this instructional activity. They trace their hand on a grid, determine the coordinates of each point, and create a scatter plot of their points. Pupils use this information to...

If the flu outbreak continues, exams will have to be canceled. Investigate the properties of exponential and logarithmic functions. In this algebra lesson, pupils use the TI to examine and differentiate between exponential growth and...

Young scholars rewrite word problems using symbols. In this algebra activity, students rewrite equations graphically, algebraically and verbally. They relate the concepts to the real world.

Students investigate the concentration level of solutions. In this math/science lesson, students identify three different ionic compounds. They predict the conductivity of each using their collected data.

Students comprehend the causes and effects of inequality and social injustice. They explore the effects of globalization and trade between countries. Students discuss the hidden social and environmental costs which often lie behind goods...

Young scholars relate Cryptography to the solving of simultaneous linear equations in matrix notation. They explore various methods of encrypting and decrypting codes. Pupils discuss and solve simultaneous linear equations.

Students explore physics. They investigate the strategies used by an engineer to solve a problem. Students construct various models to solve the problem. They display their solutions and explain how they solved the problem.

Students define fluctuation and the price of food. In this algebra lesson, students create a budget to live on based on their living expenses. They create a chart and explore the cause and effect of real life scenarios.

Students practice using algebra to be applied to real world situational problems. The key concepts of translation of language to algebraic expressions is covered. They also look in depth at relationships between different quantities.
