In this lesson from the MAPS GIS program at Lane Community College, students examine global spatial patterns of human development using a web-based GIS map. Using the HDI (Human Development Index) layer, students can identify demographic patterns of population and development and hypothesize reasons...

This resource, provided by Anti-body Engineers, features an image of a 3D model of an Immunoglobulin (IgG) antibody. Users can click on the image and see an IgG antibody in iCn3D, a three-dimensional visualization platform for molecular structures. The IgG antibody model allows for a detailed...

This web-based learning object, created by Terry Bartelt of the Wisconsin Online Resource Center, teaches impedance matching. "Learners examine the impedance matching capability of a transformer and how to select the proper turns ratio to achieve this function. A brief quiz completes the activity."

This website is provided by Shodor Education Foundation and contains a series of online interactive activities designed for use in middle school mathematics. Topics include: Geometry, Algebra, Probability, Statistics, Modeling, Discrete, and others.

 The website provides interactive plasma physics tutorials on topics including electricity, magnetism, energy, and fusion. The site has links to Virtual Tokamak and Virtual Magnetic Stability Modules as well as Java applets to learn about Plasma and Fusion Containment.

Think small--really small. Some nanotechnology devices are as small as one nanometer, or 1/80,000th the width of a human hair. At these sizes, it is no wonder that scientists have seized upon nanotechnology for its potential in medical applications. In the not-too-distant future, as this slide show...

In this interactive object, learners practice their 3D visualization skills by identifying the correct isometric view of an object. Front, side, and top orthographic views are shown.  

These resource, from the Wisconsin Online Resource Center, provides a brain exercise to assist in the interpretation of engineering drawings. With this interactive object, "learners practice their 3D visualization skills by identifying the correct isometric view of an object." In the first section,...

This website contains an ion chromatography simulator that can be run online or downloaded. The simulator focuses on separations of proteins using ion chromatography. Also included is linked reference information, an example of a homework assignment using the simulator, and some information on...

This video recording from Excelsior College demonstrates a simulation that takes users through a series of job tasks to troubleshoot and repair a press motor. This simulation is a situation that involves "a press motor in [a] Manufacturing area [of a plant] has ceased operation while in the middle...
