A collection of STEM video lessons for high school classrooms from the Blended Learning Open Source Science or Math Studies. First, take the teacher video tour, and then search the library by subject area, keyword, or standards to find classroom supplements which will support 21st century student learning.
The Maker Party, an initiative in which people around the world meet up, learn to make things, and share what they've made online. This collection is designed to support the Maker Party by providing a one-stop shop of STEM and digital making resources that focus on the problem, technology, or process behind object creation. Teachers can use the collection, which is categorized into design, how to (DIY), arts and crafts, robotics, and engineering subtopics, in conjunction with hands-on activities to further this initiative. Like the Maker Party, this collection is designed to encourage hands-on engagement in science, technology, engineering, math, and the arts. This Collection includes: Video (58), Media Gallery (3), Lesson Plan (3) for Grades All , Resources in Spanish (5).
