This 50-page resource, developed by the National Center for Optics and Photonics Education (OP-TEC), is a curriculum guide intended to support the implementation and teaching of Photonics Systems Technicians (PST) courses. This guide "provides assistance to faculty who will be developing...
This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the general concepts of size or SI prefixes. Students will study what equipment or tools a person would need to view objects of particular sizes. The less can be used in multiple ways including "to see how much...
This lesson plan, from the Contextualize to Learn project at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is an exploration done with base-ten blocks. In this activity, students are paired up and work with base-ten blocks to show that the four digits of a four-digit natural number represents amounts of...
This learning activity will be helpful for students learning about plastic deformation. Specifically, the exercise looks at plastic deformation in polyethylene, which is found in plastic sheets, bags and other common items. Students will participate in plastic deformation of a polymer, observe "...
Learning Unit Description:
The Integrated Geospatial Education and Technology Training Project (iGETT) presents a series of Learning Units (LU) designed to incorporate federal land remote sensing data into Geographic Information Systems (GIS) instruction. The Evaluating Post-Fire Vegetation...
Module Description: The Fire Ecology and Management Series is provided by the Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources and includes six modules. This series “is designed to address both the general role of fire in ecosystems as well as specific wildfire management issues in forest ecosystems.” The...

"How can I get my students to think?" is a question asked by many faculty, regardless of their disciplines. Problem-based learning (PBL) is an instructional method that challenges students to "learn to learn," working cooperatively in groups to seek solutions to real world problems. These problems...
