This TEDx talk by Lee Taal "gives educators research and perspective on why we do career education to build the value and understanding of why it matters."
Cody Deaner shared his motivational messages with student delegates at our Sun West Student Leadership Conference in 2019. He is currently staying home to do his part to flatten the COVID-19 curve. He is using this time to compile stories, reflection activities, and further supports for students during these unprecedented times.
A huge shoutout to Cody Deaner for his continued leadership. We are inspired by his innovative spirit, creativity, and willingness to share.
Students design, build and evaluate a spring-powered mouse trap racer. For evaluation, teams equip their racers with an intelligent brick from a LEGO© MINDSTORMS© NXT Education Base Set and a HiTechnic© acceleration sensor. They use acceleration data collected during the launch to compute velocity and displacement vs. time graphs. In the process, students learn about the importance of fitting mathematical models to measurements of physical quantities, reinforce their knowledge of Newtonian mechanics, deal with design compromises, learn about data acquisition and logging, and carry out collaborative assessment of results from all participating teams.
Practice real-life technology skills and master the use of the mouse with this fun interactive.

Students' understanding of how robotic touch sensors work is reinforced through a hands-on design challenge involving LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT intelligent bricks, motors and touch sensors. They learn programming skills and logic design in parallel as they program robot computers to play sounds and rotate a wheel when a touch sensor is pressed, and then produce different responses if a different touch sensor is activated. Students see first-hand how robots can take input from sensors and use it to make decisions to move as programmed, including simultaneously moving a motor and playing music. A PowerPoint® presentation and pre/post quizzes are provided.

The #MyFoodChoice resource is an inquiry-based resource answering the overall question of "How can I make informed food choices?" This resources has videos, interactive student sheets, approved resources and more. It is aimed at grade 9-12 students in subjects such as science, food studies, English, agriculture, social studies, humanities to name a few.
Students are introduced to various types of hearing impairments and the types of biomedical devices that engineers have designed to aid people with this physical disability.
What is My Questions Round Robin?
This strategy helps students develop their thinking processes while providing students with a sense of control and a higher sense of their academic ability. This is a small group activity.
Why use it?
To provide students with the opportunity to ask personally meaningful questions of content.
To provide students with the opportunity to develop skills related to asking divergent or open-ended questions.
To provide students with the opportunity to hear the perspectives of others on a common topic.
To provide students with the opportunity to practice the skills of communication, collaboration, and critical thinking.
To activate students’ prior knowledge on a topic to be discussed in class.
Greenhouse gases are vital to life on Earth, but the growing concentration of certain gases, such as carbon dioxide, is throwing the planet's delicate balance out of whack. NASA is on the case, studying carbon dioxide on a global scale and its effects on our weather and climate.
