This resource, from the STEM Guitar Project, is an activity on the mathematics of musical scales. "In this activity, students will explore the mathematical principles of musical scales by measuring and graphing the frequencies produced by standard-pitched instruments." This resource briefly...

This activity from the Florida Advanced Technological Education (FL-ATE) Center asks students to use the concepts of measurement and precision in the context of designing and manufacturing surgical instruments. The interdisciplinary lesson plan involves science, computer technology, math and...

This 11-page resource, made available by the STEM Guitar Project, is an activity on the measurement of guitar string action. During the activity students will "learn to use precision measurement tools (string action gauges or steel rules) to determine the amount of string action on their guitar."...

This webinar recording from the Center for Renewable Energy Advanced Technological Education Resource Center (CREATE) features a presentation from Deb Hall, who describes a hands-on STEM outreach project designed to engage and introduce middle school aged students to Building Automated Systems...

This Georgia Tech webpage includes AMP-IT-UP middle school curriculum. AMP-IT-UP curriculum includes engineering, math, and science modules. Nine 1-week middle school modules are included that cover topics in geometry, statistics and algebra. All modules promote problem-based learning within...

This 6-page resource, from the Geospatial Center of the CUNY CREST Institute, includes an application for the fall 2020 middle school workshop Feature Extraction from Satellite Datasets. This workshop was intended to "expose and train participants in feature extraction techniques using industry...

This 2-page flyer provides information about the Badge Pathway at Minnesota State Advanced Manufacturing Center of Excellence. "The pathway allows [middle and high school] students to earn digital badges while learn[ing] about manufacturing and embark on a variety of fun activities including...

This experiment, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers Mixtures and Nanotechnology. The main idea of this module is to introduce the idea to students that the classification of mixtures is based on the size of particles. Students will also be prompted to connect two...
