Grades:
In this lesson, students will work in teams to design a pair of headphones specifically for children under three.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will investigate the application of 3D printing to space technology.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will investigate and categorize types of artificial intelligence to determine a protocol for the Turing Test.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will investigate the technological application of quantum effects in cyber security.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will work in small groups to investigate constraints of starting a business. Each group will be assigned a specific constraint. Small groups will then write a linear inequality and graph the inequality on a group capture sheet.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will work in small groups to stack Solo cups vs. Styrofoam cups to see how many of each it takes for the two stacks to be equal. Students will then derive a system of linear equations to model the scenario of the two stacks of cups.
- 9–12
Grades:
In this activity, students work in teams to develop a method for creating a mathematical model of the path of a ball. The teams measure the height from which a ball is thrown, and the time taken for the ball to reach the ground.
- 9–12
Grades:
In this activity, students will work in teams and use the approach of biomimicry to build an Adaptation Station that will enhance life for humans living in a specific environment.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will design one or more unique levels of a maze game using a free online coding program.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will “mash up” an assigned product with one design influence from nature and present the product design to their peers using a free CAD software (such as Google Sketch).
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will use geometric shapes to design a unique three-dimensional object that has an everyday use.
- 9–12
Grades:
Students will explore how satellites send images from telescopes in space, which we can access on Earth via the Internet.
- 9–12
Grades:
In this activity, students will compare samples of monomers and polymers in powder and thread form (sugar/cotton candy and cotton flock/cotton balls).
