This lesson will introduce students to the topic of designing websites that take web accessibility issues into account and will introduce students to Section 508 Of The Rehabilitation Act.
This lesson will introduce students to the web site design practice of using Wireframing to develope webpages within a website.
Students explore the basics of DC circuits, analyzing the light from light bulbs when connected in series and parallel circuits. Ohm's law and the equation for power dissipated by a circuit are the two primary equations used to explore circuits connected in series and parallel. Students measure and see the effect of power dissipation from the light bulbs. Kirchhoff's voltage law is used to show how two resistor elements add in series, while Kirchhoff's current law is used to explain how two resistor elements add when in parallel. Students also learn how electrical engineers apply this knowledge to solve problems. Power dissipation is particularly important with the introduction of LED bulbs and claims of energy efficiency, and understanding how power dissipation is calculated helps when evaluating these types of claims. This activity is designed to introduce students to the concepts needed to understand how circuits can be reduced algebraically.
In this self-paced tutorial, examine evidence of climate change from different parts of the Earth‰Ûªs system and consider what it means to live on a planet with a dynamically changing climate. The resource includes multimedia resources such as video clips of local impacts of climate change in the Arctic and Samoa, data visualization exercise featuring digital resources on climate.nasa.gov, and an interview with NASA climate scientist Dr. Gavin Schmidt, a discussion on teaching using data, and an interactive quiz. Introduction to the Earth's Dynamically Changing Climate is the first of a series of ten self-paced professional development modules providing opportunities for teachers to learn about climate change through first-hand data exploration. Activities and resources that can be employed in the classroom are featured.
Intro to Ag Mechanics prepares students for careers related to the construction, operation, and maintenance of equipment used by the Agriculture Studies industry. Topics will include safety, woodworking, electrical systems, plumbing, cold metal work, concrete, and welding technology.
Being able to recognize a problem and design a potential solution is the first step in the development of new and useful products. In this activity, students create devices to get "that pesky itch in the center of your back." Once the idea is thought through, students produce design schematics (sketches). They are given a variety of everyday materials and recyclables, from which they prototype their back-scratching devices.

To better understand electricity, students investigate the properties of materials based on their ability to dispel static electricity. They complete a lab worksheet, collect experimental data, and draw conclusions based on their observations and understanding of electricity. The activity provides hands-on learning experience to safely explore the concept of static electricity, learning what static electricity is and which materials best hold static charge. Students learn to identify materials that hold static charge as insulators and materials that dispel charge as conductors. The class applies the results from their material tests to real-world engineering by identifying the best of the given materials for moving current in a solar panel.
Overview: Sun West and Junior Achievement Partnership for Grade 68Career Education:
Sun West School Division partnered with Junior Achievement Saskatchewan in support of career development competencies of students through a business lens. Grade 8 Career Education Teachers will continue to deliver Junior Achievement’s Dollars with Sense (Gr. 8) program to our students.
Junior Achievement focuses on the pillars of Financial Literacy, Entrepreneurship, and Work Readiness. The programs include combinations of whole class, team, and individual activities. Junior Achievement kits were sent to schools and categorized in our libraries. The materials are very detailed containing necessary resources, student preparation portfolios, and the teacher inspiration guide. The Student Preparation Portfolio consumables have been sent to schools.
As well, Junior Achievement has updated their online portal and created both Teacher-led and Student self-directed modules. These modules can be used alongside the physical kits – lots of options! Course Access Codes for the online portal have been shared with CD LEAD Teachers and Administrators. The access codes are also included in the packages sent to schools. If any support needed,
