This video, created by ATETV and presented by WGBH, takes a look at agricultural technology as a career choice. This video provides a basic overview of the field and its growing importance. In the video, several students give their opinions of an agricultural technology program, and instructors...

Module Description: The Fire Ecology and Management Series is provided by the Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources and includes six modules. The series “is designed to address both the general role of fire in ecosystems as well as specific wildfire management issues in forest ecosystems.” The...

In this video, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), viewers learn about the history of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) in this 49:17 minute lecture by Dr. Matthias W. Pliel from Central New Mexico Community College. The lecture and slides cover the developments made in...

In this lesson from the MAPS GIS program at Lane Community College, students will estimate the impact of HIV/AIDS on world populations. They will look at adult and child case numbers as well as look at the effect of the HIV/AIDS epidemic on the existing public health care systems. Students will also...

This 25-page report, published by Harrington Middle School, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the Lancer Lumineers team for the Ranger Class of the 2022 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM...

The Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Workshop (MAST) provides this lesson plan which will help students understand how temperature affects the conductivity, or resistance, of a variety of electrical materials and devices. The basic scientific principles of heat, metals and semiconductors...

The Materials Science and Technology Teacher's Workshop (MAST) provides this lesson plan for students learning about concrete. The class will "calculate the amount of water that reacts during hydration when cement becomes concrete under differing curing temperatures and observe the pH change that...

Alu is an example of a so-called 'jumping gene' - a transposable DNA sequence that reproduces "by copying itself and inserting into new chromosome locations." This animation from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Dolan DNA Learning Center presents Alu through a series of illustrations of the processes...

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of measurement on the nanoscale. Through this exercise, students will learn about "state the size of a nanometer, convert between nanometers and other metric units of length, and give concrete examples of...

This demonstration, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, exposes students to the functionality of catalysts on a nanoscale. This lesson is "a great way to introduce or review reactants, catalysts, and adsorption, desorption, and diffusion. Use this demonstration after the...
