Ever wondered why we act the way we do and make the choices we make? Abraham Maslow, an American psychologist believed that our actions and hidden desires are driven by a series of needs, which he organized into a pyramid. According to Maslow, our most basic needs, like food, air, and water, are the ones we need for our basic survival. So, our primary motivation is to meet these survival needs first. It does not matter how much money you have or how fancy your house is if your hungry and homeless. Once we have these fundamental needs covered, that’s when we can start focusing on our “higher order” needs.

Module 33 MacroeconomicsAssignment Instructions: Answer the following questions regarding how macroeconomic principles can really impact how individuals make financial decisions.

FL10.1 Explore how value systems, social factors, personal experiences and cultural backgrounds can influence financial decision making. Whether we realize it or not, we use money everyday! However, we’re not always aware of how we use our money or why we make the financial decisions we do. People decide how to use their money based on their personal values, or what they judge to be important in their lives. Take some time now to identify what your students value! Students can discuss their personal financial decision-making process, identify their money personality based on personal behavior and choices and analyze financial decisions and the influence of personal/external factors.

Students design and develop a useful assistive device for people challenged by fine motor skill development who cannot grasp and control objects. In the process of designing prototype devices, they learn about the engineering design process and how to use it to solve problems. After an introduction about the effects of disabilities and the importance of hand and finger dexterity, student pairs research, brainstorm, plan, budget, compare, select, prototype, test, evaluate and modify their design ideas to create devices that enable a student to hold and use a small paintbrush or crayon. The design challenge includes clearly identified criteria and constraints, to which teams rate their competing design solutions. Prototype testing includes independent evaluations by three classmates, after which students redesign to make improvements. To conclude, teams make one-slide presentations to the class to recap their design projects. This activity incorporates a 3D modeling and 3D printing component as students generate prototypes of their designs. However, if no 3D printer is available, the project can be modified to use traditional and/or simpler fabrication processes and basic materials.

In this lesson, students learn some basic facts about asteroids in our solar system. The main focus is on the size of asteroids and how that relates to the potential danger of an asteroid colliding with the Earth.

Les ateliers sont inspirés des centres d’apprentissages en mathématiques et permettent aux élèves de développer le sens des concepts mathématiques en travaillant en dyades. Dans les ateliers, les élèves utilisent du matériel de manipulation pour effectuer des tâches visant la compréhension et le passage du mode concret au mode symbolique.
Ce site vous donne des idées pour la création d'ateliers en math. Quelques thèmes sont: -la multiplication -les nombres naturels -les fractions -les nombres décimaux -la géométrie -la mesure

In which John Green teaches you about one of the least funny subjects in history: slavery. John investigates when and where slavery originated, how it changed over the centuries, and how Europeans and colonists in the Americas arrived at the idea that people could own other people based on skin color.
Slavery has existed as long as humans have had civilization, but the Atlantic Slave Trade was the height, or depth, of dehumanizing, brutal, chattel slavery. American slavery ended less than 150 years ago. In some parts of the world, it is still going on. So how do we reconcile that with modern life? In a desperate attempt at comic relief, Boba Fett makes an appearance.

Introduction
If you were asked to draw the structure of an atom, what would you draw? Throughout history scientists have accepted five atomic models. Our perception of the atom has changed from the early Greek model because of clues or evidences that have been gathered through scientific experiments. As more evidence was gathered old models were discarded or improved upon. Your goal is to trace the atomic theory through history.
