Through a series of three lessons and one activity, students are introduced to inertia, forces and Newton's three laws of motion. For each lesson, a combination of class demonstrations and PowerPoint® presentations are used to explain, show and relate the concepts to engineering. Lesson 1 starts with inertia, forces and Newton's first law of motion. Lesson 2 builds on lesson 1 with s review and then introduces Newton's second law of motion. Lesson 3 builds on the previous two lessons with a review and then introduces Newton's third law of motion. In a culminating activity, students apply their knowledge of forces, friction, acceleration and gravity in an experiment to measure the average acceleration of a textbook pulled along a table by varying weights, and then test the effects of friction on different surfaces.

This is an activity about light. Learners will make their own spectroscopes from easily obtainable materials and use prisms to observe different types of white light sources to see the colors that form the visible light spectrum. This is Activity 2 of the Sun As a Star afterschool curriculum.

This is an activity about what individuals already know about the Sun. Learners will brainstorm and share with the group their prior knowledge about the Sun. This is Activity 1 of the Sun As a Star afterschool curriculum.

Through four lesson and four activities, students are introduced to the logic behind programming. Starting with very basic commands, they develop programming skills while they create and test programs using LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT robots. Students apply new programming tools move blocks, wait blocks, loops and switches in order to better navigate robots through mazes. Through programming challenges, they become familiar with the steps of the engineering design process. The unit is designed to be motivational for student learning, so they view programming as a fun activity. This unit is the third in a series. PowerPoint® presentations, quizzes and worksheets are provided throughout the unit.

Die Funktionsweise des Mikroprozessors wollen wir in unserem Kurs nachvollziehen. Dabei werden wir wirklich ganz von vorne in den 50er Jahren anfangen und uns mit Logikgattern, Lochkarten, der Z3 und der von Neumann Architektur auseinandersetzen. Anschliessend werden wir uns - nur ein wenig - mit der Physik und Elektrotechnik des Mikroprozessors befassen und verstehen, dass er nichts anderes als eine sehr kompakte Z3 ist. Darüber hinaus werden wir uns in die Grundlagen von Betriebssystemen einarbeiten und verstehen, wie die Komponenten eines modernen Computers miteinander interagieren. Doch wer glaubt, dass wir in unserem Kurs nur graue Theorie wälzen, hat sich geschnitten. Im praktischen Teil werden wir selbst einen Mikroprozessor (Raspberry Pi) und Periphärie mit Assembler ansteuern und programmieren. An unserem Kursziele angekommen haben wir hoffentlich verstanden, wie ein Computer denn nun wirklich funktioniert und werden demnächst, wenn wir im Internet surfen, ein Spiel spielen oder ein Referat schreiben uns vielleicht öfter ein Mal erstaunt zurück lehnen und diesem Meisterwerk an Ingenieurskunst unsere Anerkennung zollen.

In this course we will read and write about works that explore symbolic encounters in the American landscape. Some of the assigned works look at uneasy encounters between ordinary individuals and animals—wolves, eagles, sandhill cranes—that Americans have invested with symbolic significance; others explore conflicts between the pragmatic American impulse to impose order on unruly nature and the equally American inclination to enshrine the unaltered landscape.

This course takes rhetoric as a system for designing meaning that helps us understand complex situations and ideas, enlighten and persuade others to act, and thus reshape our world. We’ll study rhetoric systematically and empirically, both analyzing how it works on us as readers, and testing how we can make informed rhetorical choices as we design our own texts.
