Banzai is a personal financial literacy tool in which students work through real life scenarios and deposit and spend their money with aid of "jars" representing budgeted money.  It helps students understand and plan a budget.

In this lesson plan students conduct a survey of ten students, collect data in a tally chart, and then display and analyze the results in a bar graph. In the analysis students must compare numbers, add, and subtract using the data in the bar graph to generate questions as well as answer them. The lesson plan includes a graph template, a link to an interactive graphing tool, extension questions, and a fact family sheet to show the related facts from their graph analysis.

Can be used as a whole class warm-up. Integrats math. Can be easily modified. 

This resource is an example of modeling the line of best fit by plotting the number of rubber bands that form a bungee cord and how far a Barbie doll can bungee jump with the length of cord. Students calculate the line of best fit by hand and using a graphing calculator. They interpret key parts of the line such as slope and y-intercept.

The consideration of cord length is very important in a bungee jump‰ŰÓtoo short, and the jumper doesn't get much of a thrill; too long, and ouch! In this lesson, students model a bungee jump using a Barbieĺ¨ doll and rubber bands. The distance to which the doll will fall is directly proportional to the number of rubber bands, so this context is used to examine linear functions.

This website contains several articles about seven different barriers to effective communication and how to overcome them.

In this video from Wide Angle, Ambassador Charlene Barshefsky, former U.S. Trade Representative in the Clinton Administration, discusses her views on economic change in China.

In this online game, students will be building numbers using Base 10 blocks.  Students decide if they want to select ones, tens, or hundreds.  Students also get to choose if they want to read the number, listen to the number, or if they want to count the blocks given and deterine the number being represented.

The purpose of this task is to help students understand what is meant by a base and its corresponding height in a triangle and to be able to correctly identify all three base-height pairs.

This task could be put to good use in an instructional sequence designed to develop knowledge related to students' understanding of linear functions in contexts. Though students could work independently on the task, collaboration with peers is more likely to result in the exploration of a range of interpretations.

This interactive activity, in applet form, guides students through the motion of the sun and how they relate to seasons.

Introduction to haematology including link to OER on blood cell types, and how to perform blood counts on an automated analysis system. Resources also include a short video on how to perform a blood smear for histological staining.

Basic inline skating skills with links to the actual skills on Youtube and a short quiz. 

This is a template and resource for creating a basic logic model for programs. A logic model is a way to visually represent the parts of an initiative or program. It can be used for school or community-based programs, and is useful when writing grant applications, doing strategic planning and evaluating programs. It was created by the Wisconsin Evaluation Collaborative at UW-Madison, feel free to contact them with questions.

Nuclear Medicine is a fascinating application of nuclear physics. The first ten chapters of this wikibook are intended to support a basic introductory course in an early semester of an undergraduate program. They assume that students have completed decent high school programs in maths and physics and are concurrently taking subjects in the medical sciences. Additional chapters cover more advanced topics in this field. Our focus in this wikibook is the diagnostic application of Nuclear Medicine. Therapeutic applications are considered in a separate wikibook, "Radiation Oncology".

This class will help you learn about search engines and get you starting searching the internet.

" This course provides students with a basic knowledge of structural analysis and design for buildings, bridges and other structures. The course emphasizes the historical development of structural form and the evolution of structural design knowledge, from Gothic cathedrals to long span suspension bridges. Students will investigate the behavior of structural systems and elements through design exercises, case studies, and load testing of models. Students will design structures using timber, masonry, steel, and concrete and will gain an appreciation of the importance of structural design today, with an emphasis on environmental impact of large scale construction."

Childhood is a source of fascination in most Western cultures. It is both a major inspiration for artistic creation and a political ideal, which aims at protecting future generations. Which role does it play in French society and in other francophone areas? Why is the French national anthem (La Marseillaise) addressed to its 'children'? This course will study the transformation of childhood since the 18th century and the development of sentimentality within the family. We will examine various representations of childhood in literature (e.g. Pagnol, Proust, Sarraute, Laye, Morgiĺvre), movies (e.g. Truffaut), and songs (e.g. Brel, Barbara). Course taught in French.

This is a small Unit Plan for Basic tools used in the Small Engine Shop.  The plan includes a variety of methods to teach students how to identify and use a variety of tools.
