2. Math and Science
• Characteristics: Creative
Thinking, Applicability, and Effectiveness
• Importance: “Literary science, mathematics, and
technology is not an option for the citizens of the
21st century.”
• Role in 21st Century Education: Incorporate a
more digital experience for our students.
3. Example
• We will have our students experiment with water
temperature in groups.
• The students will participate in a lab where they
will use math and science to calculate the
temperature of water at boiling point and at
freezing point.
• Each group will have access to a Bunsen
Burner, a Constant Temperature Bath, a
thermometer, and 5mL of water in a test tube.
4. YouTube
• YouTube videos will be used as a tutorial as to
how to calculate various water temperatures.
• They will watch the video given below:

6. Secondlife
• Explore second life to discover various aquatic
environments and how the climate affects the
state of the water (i.e.: glaciers and hot
springs).
7. Voki
• The voki will explain the process in calculating
the difference between boiling and melting
points.
8. WebQuest
• Complete a WebQuest, created by the teacher,
prior to the lab about the various properties of
water.
9. Visuals and Materials
• Use a smart board to collect the data obtained
by the students during the experiment.
• We will have each group be in charge of a
certain part of the experiment.
• That group will be in charge of collecting the
data for this experiment and writing it on the
smart board for the class to see.
10. Conclusion
• Math and science are not only important as
subjects, but also as thought processes.
• The application of scientific thought has a
broader range than math or science, but can be
applied to various daily life situations.
• Grasping these principals will create a more
well rounded student
