Adding Creativity to Science Inquiry |
6 to 12 |
(5.0 stars, 2 ratings) Students create flip videos that enhance scientific investigations performed in class by having students think metacognitively while fusing the fun of creativity with the science of analytical thinking. |
Alternative Modes for Alternative Ed |
P-K to P-K |
(5.0 stars, 1 ratings) To provide media information in the form of a DVD library centrally located at Seminole County District Office in order to provide various learning formats for struggling and at risk incarcerated learnes. |
Analyzing Motion of a Tossed Ball |
10 to 12 |
(5.0 stars, 1 ratings) Using digital cameras, students collect videos of their peers making basketball shots or tossing a ball in a parabolic arc. Using Vernier software, the students then analyze the motion of the object. |
Analyzing Text Using Technology |
3 to 12 |
(5.0 stars, 1 ratings) This lesson plan allows teachers to incorporate technology into any selected piece of text. Students will use Google Forms to analyze selected text and use a document camera to present their analysis. |
Art and Life: Where Do We Use Art? |
9 to 12 |
(5.0 stars, 1 ratings) This lesson increases the relevance of not only art classes, but also all academic disciplines by engaging the students to research how art is used in all aspects of their education and their lives. They will create videos that will collect factual information and visual examples that will educate the viewers on how art is used in a variety of settings and how historical people and socities have depended on the coexistence of art and non art subjects. |
Bouncy Ball Energy |
9 to 10 |
(5.0 stars, 1 ratings) Students make their own bouncy balls after a short discussion about what is happening at the molecular level to convert the substance from liquid to solid. Then students record a video of dropping their ball to upload and analyze in LoggerPro. |
