MIT researcher Deb Roy wanted to understand how his infant son learned language -- so he wired up his house with videocameras to catch every moment (with exceptions) of his son's life, then parsed 90,000 hours of home video to watch "gaaaa" slowly turn into "water." Astonishing, data-rich research with deep implications for how we learn. Deb Roy studies how children learn language, and designs machines that learn to communicate in human-like ways. On sabbatical from MIT Media Lab, he's working with the AI company Bluefin Labs. A quiz, thought provoking question, and links for further study are provided to create a lesson around the 20-minute video. Educators may use the platform to easily "Flip" or create their own lesson for use with their students of any age or level.

Communication Systems Projects with LabVIEW features ten project activities in digital communication systems based on the LabVIEW graphical dataflow programming platform. Each project includes introductory material in the form of text and narrated screencast videos, specifications for low-level subVI building blocks, and step-by-step instructions to assemble application VIs to implement a variety of simulations, visualizations, and working transmitters and receivers. This textbook organizes the projects into related topics, including: (1) Simulation and Visualization of Fundamental Concepts, (2) Channel Coding and Error Control, (3) FSK Demodulation (Caller ID), and (4) Bandpass Communications over the Speaker-Air-Microphone Channel.

Students explore the densities and viscosities of fluids as they create a colorful 'rainbow' using household liquids. While letting the fluids in the rainbow settle, students conduct 'The Great Viscosity Race,' another short experiment that illustrates the difference between viscosity and density. Later, students record the density rainbow with sketches and/or photography.

"Educators, we love you. And we see how much time and energy you give to your students, often at the cost of your own health.
The truth is, as easy as it is to put our students first and ourselves on the back burner, our wellness is key. Our wellness plays a fundamental role in leading a healthy and fulfilled life. And at the end of the day how healthy and fulfilled you feel deeply affects your relationship with your students, colleagues, and overall school community.
Designed for educators, our toolkit includes practical, easy-to-use yoga and mindfulness tools to support your overall health and wellness as an educator. These tools give you the opportunity to take a well-deserved brain break and take care of your wellness right there during the in-person or distance learning school day.
Our 37-page toolkit includes:
7 dimensions of wellness
7 chair yoga tools
4 mindful practices
2 journal activities
1 vision board template
1 visualization
1 affirmation template with 10 pre-made affirmations
No previous yoga experience or extra equipment necessary

Students discover fluid dynamics related to buoyancy through experimentation and optional photography. Using one set of fluids, they make light fluids rise through denser fluids. Using another set, they make dense fluids sink through a lighter fluid. In both cases, they see and record beautiful fluid motion. Activities are also suitable as class demonstrations. The natural beauty of fluid flow opens the door to seeing the beauty of physics in general.

My students each made a story wheel to show their creativity. They had to use visualization strategies to create their own illustrations for a story book that they had never seen or heard before. My PLT group has been working on Visualization strategies all year.
