Medical Mystery: A Parasite Puzzle
Medical Mystery: A Parasite Puzzle is a 10-day learning module designed for middle school in which students will research, discuss, and ultimately diagnose a disease caused by a particular parasite.
Nature’s Smallest Raincoat
Students will develop background knowledge about nanoscience and biomimicry to engage in a hands-on lesson where they explore how various natural materials react when exposed to water and other contaminants.
Restoration Evaluation
Students will be able to observe and measure the built wetlands habitat and describe the ecosystem interactions as well as evidence of resilience.
Water Quality Monitoring of Local Stream
Students will collect water samples from a local stream and measure various aspects of water quality.
May Your Poop Live On
Students will explore the differences between linear and circular systems and the implications. They will visit a transfer station and learn about circular and linear systems.
Where in the Sphere?
Pre-Calculus introduces topics that become crucial to the continuum of topics of higher level math such as Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and beyond.
Arroyo Valley Creek Study
Students will investigate the water quality of Arroyo Valle Creek, analyze historical and current data, and design a community action to improve local watershed health.
Carbon Cycle and Ocean Acidification
Making a personal, achievable commitment to reduce one’s carbon output and indirectly impact ocean acidification.
Design Process with Focus on Group/Partner Collaboration
The goal of this ETP is to see how Amazonian principles can be applied in the classroom to reinvent the laboratory design process with the help of collaboration. In the science classroom, laboratory procedures are generally provided for students.
