Working with Device Quality at Amazon Lab126 for the second summer, my Education Transfer Plan (ETP) is to create more depth and complexity to the engineering design projects I developed in my first ETP for my English Language Arts (ELA) courses at AdVenture STEM last summer (2018).
This engineering design challenge will allow students to build their own structurally stable pocket microscope using basic materials that include glass beads, plastic straws, index cards, tape, binder clips, paper clips, and a light source (eventually integrate their cell phone cameras in a new c
“To flow, or not to flow...that is the question?!” The world as we know it is more complex than just solids, liquids and gases. Consider liquids and ask yourself the question...
The goal of this ETP is to expose students to the Biomimicry process of using innovation from nature to solve problems. We will be using AskNature.org to identify a design principal (function in AskNature.org), which will be applied in the construction of a tower.
This is a two-day math lesson where students will play the role of Cisco’s CFO and decide whether building a new campus makes financial sense for the company.
Students begin in whole group to introduce vocabulary and terms. They will then partner up or be in small groups to watch short videos about solar energy. They will be introduced to the power of solar energy and the processes used to convert solar energy into electromagnetic and thermal energy.
The purpose of this ETP is to develop and execute a professional development session for the faculty of Aurum Preparatory Academy (Aurum) to support in building a more collaborative team to address students who are struggling academically, behaviorally, and/or social-emotionally through the Stude
