Module Description:
The NCSR Marine Fisheries Series is provided by the Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources and includes ten modules. This series is designed to cover issues related to “marine fisheries with an emphasis on those species that are commercially harvested in the United States....
This resource, published by Georgia Tech Research Institute, features an science activity designed for eighth graders. In this activity, students engage as environmental engineers to determine how the oil from the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill landed at the bottom of the ocean in order to prevent...
The Maritime Life Board Game is a 90-minute activity designed to engage high school students with career pathways in the maritime and transportation industries. This activity was created by Kelsey Warren, a 2016 SMART Maritime and Transportation Institute Alumni. During the activity, students...
This experiment compares the mechanical and thermal properties of variously treated art clay. Students will be constructing beams made from art clay. They will then be sintering some of the beams and testing the differences in mechanical properties. The lesson is expected to span several days. On...
This learning module looks at materials selection from an eco-efficiency point of view. Students will learn the underlying causes of unsustainable practices, research how energy is used to create products and begin to examine the environmental impact of materials used. This activity is intended for...
This lesson plan, which has been used in a college level materials processing laboratory course, looks at the concept of processing-structure-property relationships. "The students baked cakes at the beginning of the semester and studied them as an introduction to the course. The activity was...
This chapter from the Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Handbook provides an overview of how to structure a materials science and technology curriculum. Topics include curriculum philosophy, course of study, student projects, the laboratory journal, and working in small groups. Drawings and...
This chapter from the Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Handbook provides experiments and demonstrations involving ceramics that can be used in a materials science and technology curriculum. These experiments are "designed to grab students’ attention, pull their minds from predictable...
