Susie Thiel, University of Kentucky Director of Dance, talks about the elements of dance: time, force, and space, and how they affect dance creation.
In this video segment from TV411, WNBA player Olympia Scott Richardson discusses her techniques for effective time management.
In this activity, students discuss the notion of time and how time can be measured. They build an hourglass to measure time and test it. This activity will allow students to have a better understanding of time and the instruments that can be used to measure it.
The purpose of this resource is to introduce students to the concept that sometimes there is no one "right" answer to a question or measurement. Students learn to be careful when searching for a right answer to questions such as 'What time is it?' by comparing multiple measurements of the time of day. Students gain an intuitive understanding of the characteristics of imperfect measurements. Using different clocks, students simultaneously record the displayed times. The resulting time measurements are converted from minutes and seconds to seconds. These measurements are plotted to illustrate the mathematical techniques of averages and deviations from an average.
In this activity, students will practice talking about their likes and dislikes. They will also practice asking each other about what they enjoy. Students will also describe what they do on a daily basis.
Students further their understanding of the engineering design process while combining mechanical engineering and bioengineering to create assistive devices. During this extended activity (seven class periods), students are given a fictional client statement and required to follow the steps of the engineering design process (EDP) to design a new wristwatch face for a visually impaired student at their school. Student groups share their designs with the class through design presentations. A successful design meets all of the student-generated design requirements, including the development of a new method of representing time that does not require the sense of sight. Through this activity, students design, construct and iterate classroom prototypes of their watch designs.
In this lab, students will converse with their partners to make a plan to meet. The students will ask their partners when they are able to meet and where they would like to meet. Students will learn about days of the week, time, and making plans with other people.
