Space Shelter
The invasion has taken place and we need to find a new home. To ensure your survival beyond earth's occupation you must design a shelter that can be built on another planet. Students will research the characteristics of a planet of their choice. They will design a shelter that will allow them to survive on a new planet, and explain it in words.
What's Hot and What's Not?
With the help of simple, teacher-led demonstration activities, students learn the basic physics of heat transfer by means of conduction, convection, and radiation. They also learn about examples of heating and cooling devices, from stove tops to car radiators, that they encounter everyday in their homes, schools, and modes of transportation. Since in our everyday lives there are many times that we want to prevent heat transfer, students also consider ways that conduction, convection, and radiati
Buoyant Boats
Students will conduct a simple experiment to see how the water level changes in a beaker when a lump of clay sinks in the water and when the same lump of clay is shaped into a bowl that floats in the water. They will notice that the floating clay displaces more water than the sinking clay does, a result that will probably surprise them. They will then determine the mass of water that is displaced when the clay floats in the water. A comparison of this mass to the mass of the clay itself should r

(2003) in their evaluation of the ways in which teachers and teaching assistants can work together in teams, suggest that, while there is enthusiasm for additional support, little attention is given to how this actually works in classrooms. It is true that learning support staff have been introduced into classrooms without clear research evidence that they can make a difference to children's learning, but then life often moves faster than the supply of research evidence.< 1.6 Teaching assistants in Europe Teaching assistants and other related learning support staff are also to be found in the schools for children of British armed forces posted overseas, in the schools of other European countries and, indeed, further afield in countries such as the USA, Canada and Australia. A survey conducted by the National Union of Teachers (NUT, 1998) highlighted some interesting support roles found in European schools, and it is worthwhile to consider these in the light of the developing role of teaching a Learning outcomes By the end of this unit, you should: be able to discuss how the UK's teaching assistant workforce came into being; be developing your understanding that teaching assistants are part of a wider, paraprofessional workforce in the public services of health, social services and education; have insights into the diverse roles and responsibilities of teaching assistants, and their distinctive contributions across the UK; be able to identify Introduction Teaching assistants, and similar learning support staff, are part of a growing new workforce in the public sector. They are sometimes referred to as ‘paraprofessionals’ – that is, workers who supplement and support the work of qualified professionals. After an early beginning in the 1960s as ‘aides’, ‘helpers’ and ‘auxiliaries’, teaching assistants have become essential to children's learning in primary schools across the United Kingdom (UK) and further a Ancient Aztec - Quiz Alien Ink Graphic Novel Introduction Some people think that the difference between speech and writing is that people use longer words in writing. In some writing this is true, but there are also significant differences, many of which are grammatical. In this unit you will develop knowledge and understanding of the differences between spoken and written English, factors that influence our use of grammar and vocabulary in speech and writing, and different ways in which grammar has been described. This unit is an adapted extr Algebra and Telescopes Introduction This unit is taken from Portales, a language course that concentrates on Spanish as a tool for communication, but it also provides some insights into Hispanic societies and cultures through authentic printed and audio materials. It will be of interest to all those who want to improve their language skills in order to communicate more easily and effectively in Spanish. This unit focuses on public spaces and how to get by in a Hispanic city. This unit is an adapted extract from the Open Leçon 5 : Le Documentaire et les images d'archives
De DzigaVertov à Frédéric Rossif, en passant par Alain Resnais et Chris Marker, de grandes signatures se sont prêtées à cet exercice bien particulier, qui consiste à faire un film sans tourner une seule image, un film qui va s’écrire entièrement sur la table de montage. Ce n’est pas pour rien qu’on appelle bien souvent les documentaires d’archives des « films de montage ». Epithelia: Pseudostratified, Transitional, and Glands Introduction This unit helps you to acquire the basic language to find your way around a French town. You will learn how to understand and give directions, ask about accommodation, book a hotel room at the tourist information office and get information about what to see and do in the local area. You will visit some museums in Avignon and buy a film for your camera. This unit also deals with telling the time and making liaisons in speech. By the end of the unit, you will feel more confident understanding a
