Presentation I gave at CMU\'s 2008 Robotics Educators Conference.
From the abstract:
"Educators have discovered that robots provide new and exciting ways to teach students about STEM concepts. Given the advantages of robotics-based education schools across the nation are busy creating after-school robotics programs. Although the programs are well-received by teachers, students and parents, a pattern of challenges is beginning to emerge:
• Busy schedules - given the various demands on free time for both teachers and students it is often difficult to carve out a common time for everyone to meet face-to-face.
• Meeting time is limited - if a common meeting time can be found it is often just an hour or two per week. Such a short time period makes it difficult to both teach lessons as well as apply the lessons to actually build robots.
• Distance to school limits who can participate - Students who commute to school from far distances may not be able to fully participate due to transportation issues.
• Knowledge silos - Classroom-based programs tend to form “soft boundaries” that inhibit the transfer of knowledge, best practices, and lessons learned across school districts. Lessons learned and innovative solutions created by students in a particular classroom often stay just within that classroom.
This presentation will share lessons-learned from teaching summer camps and after-school programs using a traditional instructor-led teaching approach. In the presentation the author will describe his on-going work of migrating to a blended learning approach using Web 2.0 community technologies integrated with a Learning Management System.
The goal is to have students first use the web-based LMS to learn the robot-related STEM concepts and then meet face-to-face to perform hands-on labs. The hypothesis examined in this presentation is whether using an LMS helps students learn core concepts more effectively, thereby enabling hands-on sessions to focus on the application of the newly acquired knowledge. The LMS selected for this program provides a patented learning model that has been proven to significantly improve students’ ability to retain key learning points over an extended period. An ancillary benefit is the ability to provide insight into a student’s learning progress to key stakeholders such as instructors and parents. Access to the LMS and community website is being offered to schools and home school groups free of charge."
Delivering STEM Education Through Robotics
This document discusses how robotics can be used to deliver STEM education. It defines STEM as focusing on science, technology, engineering and mathematics to ensure US leadership in these fields. Robotics is defined as the design, construction and operation of robots. The document outlines how robotics provides opportunities for authentic problem solving, allows students to apply math and science concepts, and is engaging for students. It describes various engineering challenges and competitions, like FIRST Robotics, that involve math, science and engineering skills through robotics projects.

This document provides instructions for students to calculate their resting pulse rate and monitor their pulse during recovery from exercise. Students are directed to take their pulse for 15 seconds in three trials and calculate the pulse per minute to determine their average resting heart rate. They then monitor their pulse every 30 seconds for 5 minutes after exercise to observe their heart rate returning to the resting level.

This document contains a worksheet with 25 questions about genetics and reproduction. It covers topics like sexual vs. asexual reproduction, meiosis vs. mitosis, Punnett squares, genotypes, alleles, genetic traits. For each question, the student is asked to provide short answers about key genetics concepts and terms. Examples are provided of sexual and asexual reproduction in different organisms. Punnett squares demonstrate inheritance of traits from parent organisms.
Gen test review 2015
This document contains questions and answers about genetics and reproduction. It defines sexual and asexual reproduction, listing humans and dogs as examples of sexual reproduction. Genetic information is contained in the cell nucleus. Scientists study organisms like pea plants and fruit flies because they reproduce quickly and are inexpensive. Meiosis produces gametes like sperm and eggs with half the number of chromosomes, while mitosis produces body cells. A Punnett square is used to determine trait probabilities in offspring. Environmental factors and multiple genes also influence traits.
Punnett square Review - Oompah Gen.
The document discusses Punnett squares and basic genetics concepts. It defines key terms like heterozygous, homozygous, genotype and phenotype. It provides examples of Punnett squares and asks the reader to determine genotypes and phenotypes based on whether a trait is dominant or recessive. It also includes an example involving the inheritance of face color and hair color in Oompa Loompas.
Midtermreviewanswers15
This document provides information on multiple topics related to biology and the scientific process. It discusses key elements of experiments like placebos, informed consent, and sample size. It also defines important scientific terms like dependent variable, independent variable, and constant variable.

It explains cellular structures and compares bacterial and animal cells. The document covers a wide range of biological concepts in a descriptive manner.
Racecaroutlinefoodpres
The document provides a framework for answering a question about food preservation methods. It outlines that the response should restate the question, answer it while citing two pieces of evidence with explanations, provide a counter argument that others may have, and rebut that counter argument with evidence from the source text.
Racecarframefoodpres
This document discusses food preservation methods and argues that canning is the best option. It cites two reasons from experts that canning destroys bacteria and seals out air to prevent spoiling. While freezing is an alternative, canning allows food to maintain its texture and flavor longer when stored.
Food preservation l8
Canning uses heat to kill microbes allowing food to be stored for long periods, though it requires significant energy and some vitamins are lost, with food poisoning a risk if not done correctly. Chemical preservation extends shelf life through anti-microbial agents but some people are sensitive and can have allergic reactions, while irradiation destroys microbes without residue or altered taste at low temperatures and little nutrient loss, though it is expensive. Pasteurization prevents microbial growth while retaining some vitamins but results in significant vitamin loss, impacted flavor, and greater expense.
Cell bio vocab (1)
This document defines key cellular structures and their functions, including the cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and vacuoles. It also briefly discusses cellular respiration, microbes, protists, bacteria, and blood types.
