This 25-page report, from Grove Academy, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the Discovery Robotics team for the Ranger Class of the 2022 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build...

In this activity, developed by the Lane Community College MAPS GIS Program, students "use logical connectors in searching a database to understand how quickly the search narrows by adding connectors. They will translate a search in to logic notation and sketch a digital circuit. Finally, they will...

This animation from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Dolan DNA Learning Center presents DNA arrays. The animation contains information on Pat Brown's discovery and the purpose of DNA arrays to study gene expression as well as its role in the development of pharmacogenomic treatment for diseases such...

This virtual lab from the Genetic Science Learning Center at the University of Utah provides an overview of DNA extraction, including what it's used for, illustrations, and an activity using cheek cells and laboratory equipment to isolate DNA. The lab is followed by a classroom activity that allows...

This animated video, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), illustrates how DNA hybridization works in the context of nanofabrication. The animation and associated narration describe "DNA hybridization is when a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) molecule bonds with a complementary...

This animated video, created by Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), illustrates how DNA microarrays work in the context of nanofabrication. The animation and associated narration describe "how a DNA microarray identifies complementary DNA (cDNA) strands from a sample. On the substrate...
