Directions: Create questions by using one word from the left hand column and one word from the top row. The farther down and to the right you go, the more complex and high-level the questions.
QuestionWell provides an unlimited array of questions, allowing teachers to concentrate on what truly matters. Simply enter some text, and the AI will generate key questions, learning objectives, and corresponding multiple-choice questions.
Here's how it works: Paste your reading material, specify a topic, and include any learning objectives or standards. The AI will then produce learning objectives and questions that you can easily export.

This mobile training program provides specialized critical care skill training to STARS crews and other emergency care providers. The first mobile program of its kind in North America, it features a human patient simulator which replicates complex medical and traumatic problems over and over again. It offers medical personnel the opportunity to test and practice their reactions and skills, leading to a high degree of familiarity and confidence.
The mannequin: speaks and breathes, blinks and has reactive pupils, has a heartbeat and a pulse
accurately mirrors human responses to such procedures as CPR, intravenous medication, intubation, ventilation and catheterization.
The mannequins have been installed in four motorhomes, creating large mobile emergency rooms. Additionally, STARS has a wireless mannequin that can be transported in a specially-modified SUV. This mannequin can be used in a variety of environments including hospital emergency rooms, classrooms, and mock accidents scenes.

TeachEngineering is a searchable, web-based digital library collection comprised of standards-based engineering curricula for use by K-12 educators to make applied science and math come alive through engineering design in K-12 settings. The TeachEngineering collection provides educators with *free* access to a growing curricular resource of activities, lessons, units, maker challenges, and sprinkles for use in informal education settings.
Formation of the TeachEngineering collection was funded primarily under the NSF National Science Digital Library program, aiming to establish a national digital library that constitutes an online network of learning environments and resources for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education at all levels. Many other generous sponsors and web partners have enabled its ongoing development and promotion.
STEM MINDS™ curates, creates and delivers the best STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) programs to children, specific to their needs. “A” for Art is embedded in everything we do as creativity is the foundation for learning!
