Description:What does a robot have to do with environmental protection? How do you remote control a model ship using a smartphone? How can you program a ‘pet’? IT is everywhere and coding offers many possibilities for exciting and relevant lessons. Organised by Science...
Descriptor: biology, mathematics
Description:In this open activity, students design a healthy, multicultural meal for their school by investigating and collaborating. How healthy a meal is, is described in relation to the five food groups and a calculation of the nutritional value. Multiculturality is...
Descriptor: mathematics
Description:In this activity students work on several puzzles concerning a rope, which they can solve by working with variables. The work on variables is twofold: students determine how variables refer to varying unknowns, and students construct and use expressions...
Descriptor: biology, mathematics
Description:Connect medical/genetical predisposition to lifestyle choices. Examine ethical (medical) issues, and explore personal boundaries. Compose the pros and cons arguments of a certain treatment or lifestyle choice. The assignment can be extended by letting...
Descriptor: biology, chemistry, physics
Description:In this activity students perform research on dynamite fishing within a socioscientific setting. This task sheds light on dynamite fishing from four angles: - Physics: sound waves created by underwater explosions. - Chemistry: workings of dynamite. ...
