Move the sun, earth, moon and space station to see how it affects their gravitational forces and orbital paths. Visualize the sizes and distances between different heavenly bodies, and turn off gravity to see what would happen without it!

How do greenhouse gases affect the climate? Explore the atmosphere during the ice age and today. What happens when you add clouds? Change the greenhouse gas concentration and see how the temperature changes. Then compare to the effect of glass panes. Zoom in and see how light interacts with molecules. Do all atmospheric gases contribute to the greenhouse effect?

The HEART Force curriculum builds understanding of wildfire, flood, or drought in the context of place-based community resilience.

In this interactive game, students work in three "resilience teams" to solve community challenges that arise during the course of an extreme drought event by using available individual and community resources.

This interactive game has students work in three “zone response teams” to solve community challenges that arise during the course of an extreme flooding event by using available individual and community resources.

In this interactive game, students work in three “zone response teams” to solve community challenges that arise during the course of a wildfire event by using available individual and community resources.

This brief Human Sexuality curriculum, offered as part of an undergraduate elective in the Human Services department, encompasses four units that collectively provide a comprehensive exploration of sexuality education in the U.S., the intersection of sex and disability, contraception, and variations in sexual behavior including kink and paraphilias. This curriculum provides varied, current, and accessible information about these topics using resources that students can continue to access for free after the end of the semester.

Unit 1: Introduction to Human Sexuality & Sexual Education in the U.S. introduces students to the history of sex education in the United States, facilitating reflection on personal experiences in contrast with broader research and policies.
Unit 2: Sex and Disability dives into the significance of inclusive sex education for individuals with physical, intellectual, and developmental disabilities. It provides in-depth resources and firsthand accounts, extending beyond typical textbook content.
Unit 3: Contraception focuses on contemporary contraceptive methods through a hands-on workshop and an on-campus scavenger hunt, emphasizing gender-neutral and inclusive resources.
Unit 4: Variations in Sexual Behavior: Kink and Paraphilias explores atypical sexual behaviors including paraphilias, kink, and BDSM using diverse media to present current and accessible content.

Each unit includes detailed lesson plans adaptable to synchronous and asynchronous formats, learning objectives, assigned materials, interactive components, and selected student feedback.

This activity encourages students to collect data to answer questions, explore the roles of individual macroinvertebrates in aquatic ecosystems, and think about the health of aquatic ecosystems relative to the macroinvertebrates found.

A history of popular music in the United States from the 1930's to early 2000's - A text in 7 modules with links to selected representative recordings and performances.

In this design challenge lesson students explore the Denver Public School District’s solid waste plan and discuss how their school can save or decrease emissions by reducing solid waste at our school.

This lesson provides guidance for students to create and practice a presentation about design challenge results that they developed in the previous unit lessons and how to present it to the school administration.

In this activity students utilize collected data and propose solutions to mitigate food waste in their school.

This lesson outlines for students how to design and carry out an investigation to audit their school’s food waste system.

Students explore the greenhouse effect in this lesson using a computer simulation and develop a model for how it works.

In this design challenge lesson, students examine their school food system and develop an investigation about food waste in order to know what should change.

This lesson has students create a hands-on model that accurately explains seasonal changes on Earth and develop knowledge of the Sun-Earth system.

In this lesson, students investigate the life history characteristics of different Antarctic penguin species and identify the changes that their populations have experienced.

Lecture notes on data and models that financial professionals utilize to measure risk

In this lesson, students explore how human activities will continue to impact Antarctic ice, discuss human contributions to climate change, and investigate what we can do to stop/reverse these negative effects.

This lesson has students explore how the gases trapped in ice cores over the last quarter of a century can be used to understand how Earth's atmosphere has changed in the past.
