The ATETV project delivers web-based videos to connect students to careers in advanced technology. This episode of ATETV focuses on high school programs that help students make a seamless transition into college, how new simulation and game development skills provide an opportunity for a career...

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 17-page resource is provided by the Center for Advanced Automotive Technology (CAAT) and is available free for download. This resource discusses a funded project that aims to develop an integrated learning system for HEV technology. World competition and stringent United States fuel economy...

This paper by P.J. Shull, of the Department of Engineering at Pennsylvania State University, covers the use of hands-on laboratory experiments in engineering mathematics education. The study includes experiment procedures, results, and a conclusion.

This lesson, developed Mark Steward, uses the Powder River Basin in Wyoming as context for a lab experiment. Students will have opportunities to demonstrate skills in measuring volumes and calculating percent composition based on recovery rates from the soluble metal solutions they work with, with...

This webinar, published by InnovATEBIO, features two talks: one on incorporating course-based research experiences into high schools and community colleges in Southwest Nebraska, and another on developing curriculum with genome planning in a program with low enrollment. The first presentation...

Terry L.M. Bartelt of the Wisconsin Online Resource Center provides this interactive study of the operation and characteristics of an incremental optical encoder used in automated manufacturing applications. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Refraction is an important behavior of light that can be used to explain the operation of lenses, prisms, and optical fiber, as well as natural phenomena such as rainbows and mirages. The index of refraction, or refractive index, is defined as the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed...

In this video from the ICT Center, learn about the index of refraction and Snell’s law. Review a simple example of refraction, the speed of light in materials, and the formula for calculating the index of refraction. Explore a table of the refractive indices of common media and materials used in...

In this video, provided by Purdue University, Chad Laux interviews Coty Back from the Indiana Department of Agriculture and Future Farmers of America. Coty discusses thoughts about the Engineering Technology Summit and agriculture education and careers. This video runs 3:35 minutes in length.
