The "Double-O-STEM" (educator guide) curriculum consists of STEM problem-solving activities. The curriculum is designed around projects that empower learners to apply STEM to creatively problem-solve community issues. These include designing bike lanes, community gardens, and other exciting STEM problems.

The activities are designed for both librarians and STEM educators. The curriculum is especially aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS (engineering; grades 3-5) and American Association of School Librarians (AASL) standards.

The post-pandemic era presents significant challenges in education, especially in technology integration. The Flexible Teaching Solution for Exploring Technological Literacy Challenges addresses these issues by emphasizing the importance of technological literacy and proposing effective solutions. Teachers face challenges such as limited technology access and proficiency, pedagogical adaptation, and the need for professional development. Students encounter difficulties with technology access, digital skills, self-regulation, motivation, equity, and inclusion. To overcome these challenges, investments in infrastructure, professional development, and inclusive policies are crucial. Blended learning, integrating face-to-face and online instruction, is a potential solution. Implementing the flexible teaching approach involves using various technology tools and platforms, open educational resources, and digital assessments. This dynamic learning environment fosters 21st-century skills in students.

The study of ancient Greece is vital to the study of all other periods of history, including modern history, in understanding how past enduring influences shape our present. This lesson may be part of a unit on Ancient Greece that covers the major areas of this ancient civilization: geography, architecture, democracy, government, philosophy, Olympics, daily life, Athens, and Sparta. Students will learn about the gods and goddesses, their place of origin, their symbols, and their sanctuaries.   

Learning about medical vocabulary Lesson OverviewIn this lesson, students will learn about basic medical vocabulary. The focus of this lesson is to discover the previous knowledge of the students about medical vocabulary and help them expanding it thought the activities proposed. Lesson PreparationRead the lesson and explore the resource libraryAs the class is develop, pay attention and try to find students who need support. These students can be assigned a partner.Give the students more sources to acquire medical vocabulary.                    

This resource is an engaging way to get your students in U.S. History or U.S. Government thinking about the founding principles of the U.S. Consitutiton. After learning about the basics of the Enlightenment Period and guided principles used in the creation of the U.S. government, students can think critically about topics and create a short satiracal video on TikTok. 

This module is thought of to be used by teachers and students. It's main area of concern is rotational motion and mass moment of inertia, two concepts which in my experience as a teacher, often makes students nervous due to the seemingly very abstract quantities involved in rotational motion. The goal of the following module is to bridge the gap between the students preliminary working knowledge in classical mechanics, while providing a hands-on approach to teaching the subject of the kinetics of rotating, solid objects. Learning ObjectivesIntroduce students to the fundamentals of the physics of rotating objects, with a suitable mix of theoretical and practical problem solving activites involving torque and mass moment of inertia.Allow students to relate their newfound understanding to real world situations where the theory allows students to analyse rotational motion in everyday situations as well as engineering applications and beyond.Enable the students to work through the concepts required before potentially proceeding with more advanced topics such as rotational energy and angular momentum. 

Durante este proyecto, los estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad de investigar, experimentar, diseñar y colaborar en la creación de soluciones sustentables que aborden problemas reales relacionados con el medio ambiente. A través de actividades prácticas, reflexión crítica y diálogo constructivo, esperamos despertar su pasión por la sustentabilidad y nutrir su compromiso con el cuidado de nuestra casa común.
