This presentation for parents is a quick introduction to MagicSchool for Students and classroom usage. While this is not meant to be a training for parents, you can combine these slides with slides from our other trainings to give your parents as much information as you like. We suggest providing parents with a live walkthrough of the student tools by launching a room for them!

This series of problems requires students to apply their knowledge of area and perimeter to find the optimal area given a specified amount of fencing. The problems progress in difficulty as new elements are added to the situation, therefore changing the outcome. This page includes tips for getting started, solution, teachers resource page, and a printable problem page.

Featuring images of glacier formations, this interactive resource adapted from the National Park Service explains what glaciers are, where they are found, how they form, and how they move.

This course will focus on the emergence and evolution of industrial societies around the world. The student will begin by comparing the legacies of industry in ancient and early modern Europe and Asia and examining the agricultural and commercial advances that laid the groundwork for the Industrial Revolution. The student will then follow the history of industrialization in different parts of the world, taking a close look at the economic, social, and environmental effects of industrialization. This course ultimately examines how industrialization developed, spread across the globe, and shaped everyday life in the modern era. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: identify key ideas and events in the history of industrialization; identify connections between the development of capitalism and the development of modern industry; use analytical tools to evaluate the factors contributing to industrial change in different societies; identify the consequences of industrialization in the 19th and 20th centuries in different societies; critique historical interpretations of the causes and effects of industrialization; and analyze and interpret primary source documents describing the process of industrialization and life in industrial societies.

In this set of addition and subtraction word problems students are encouraged to find their own way to solve the problems. This enables students to discover the strengths and weaknesses of different solution methods and to see how multiple methods all arrive at the same answer. Included with the problem set are tips for getting started, the solutions, a teacher resource page, and a printable student page.

In this lesson, we learn how insects can fly in the rain. The objective is to calculate the impact forces of raindrops on flying mosquitoes. Students will gain experience with using Newton's laws, gathering data from videos and graphs, and most importantly, the utility of making approximations. No calculus will be used in this lesson, but familiarity with torque and force balances is suggested. No calculators will be needed, but students should have pencil and paper to make estimations and, if possible, copies of the graphs provided with the lesson. Between lessons, students are recommended to discuss the assignments with their neighbors.

Students will learn to solve compound inequalities, absolute value inequalities, and systems of equations, simplify radical expressions, solve quadratic equations and applications and simplify compound fractions, solve rational equations and applications, use function notation to solve problems and use exponential and logarithmic functions.Login: guest_oclPassword: ocl

The main goal of the course is to highlight the general assumptions and methods that underlie all statistical analysis. The purpose is to get a good understanding of the scope, and the limitations of these methods. We also want to learn as much as possible about the assumptions behind the most common methods, in order to evaluate if they apply with reasonable accuracy to a given situation. Our goal is not so much learning bread and butter techniques: these are pre-programmed in widely available and used software, so much so that a mechanical acquisition of these techniques could be quickly done "on the job". What is more challenging is the evaluation of what the results of a statistical procedure really mean, how reliable they are in given circumstances, and what their limitations are.Login: guest_oclPassword: ocl

The materials here were selected for ESOL learners who have intermediate-high intermediate writing skills and are starting more "academic" levels of course work in order to transition into college-level composition courses.

Generational poverty is passed down from parent to child as an afterthought not by intentional means. Without intervention, each subsequent generation will lose additional means and opportunities. Not every person lacking education is in extreme poverty, but many of the extremely poor are lacking education. Properly run STEM programs, with the right perspective, have the unique opportunity to inspire, encourage, and introduce concepts that will change the trajectory of a generation aimed for poverty.

This collection of division word problems prompts learners to use a variety of methods of division. Allowing learners to choose their own method to solve the word problems enables them to see the strengths and weaknesses of various methods and to see why certain methods might be better for specific problems. Included with these problems is the solution, teacher resource page, tips on getting started, and a printable student page.
