Team Final Project: Code for Good. As CS students develop their programming skills, they also need to develop the awareness that programming can have a vital role in mitigating social concerns and improving life.
The art of learning a new computer programming language is similar to the art of learning a new language. Each language has its unique structure and syntax, but also similarities that make learning a new language easier. In this lesson, students are given a script written in Snap!
Matter is all around us. Many students intuitively know that wood is harder than dough. This lesson gives them the starting foundation for understanding how scientists look at materials and decide what category they fit into.
The goal of this ETP is to expose students to the Biomimicry process of using innovation from nature to solve problems.
In today’s increasingly digital world, we produce (and continue to produce) large amounts of data about things ranging from test scores, to social media posts that we “Like” or “Comment”, to online shopping recommendations, to how safe (or not) a new engineering design could be, to self-driving c
The purpose of this ETP is to develop an open-ended process for students to learn physics and coding in python. This process will include four steps. The first step will be to learn the physics concepts by direct instruction: given the principles, examples and exercises.
Biotechnology is the use and alteration of biological materials to make food, drugs, and other goods. Genetic engineering encompasses many different techniques for moving DNA between different organisms.
Climate change and symbiotic relationships are important elements of the work in my fellowship position with the John R.
CRISPR technology has revolutionized the field of genetic engineering due to its accuracy and ease of use. Scientists can use this system to precisely modify DNA at specific loci, which has tremendous potential to benefit human life.
