When I started college as a freshman 4 years ago, I was overwhelmed with the possibilities of my future. I had no idea what I wanted to do, and it felt like college would last an eternity; in a way, I was hoping it would. I remember having to remind myself that change can be challenging, but with change comes new opportunities. Today, I smile when I think about how nervous I was for my first day of classes and feel proud of how far I have come to find who I am.
Financial literacy is a crucial life skill that empowers individuals to make informed financial decisions. We invite you to an interactive and informative session, where we will focus on the three main pillars of personal financial management: budgeting, credit, and investing. During this session, you will have the opportunity to actively participate in three different engaging lessons designed to introduce and explore essential financial topics.
Help students build active citizenship skills with a practical lesson on registering to vote. Through critical thinking prompts, real-life scenarios, and hands-on practice analyzing voter registration forms, learners explore both the purpose and process of civic participation.
Prepare students for civic life with an engaging lesson that explores the right to vote and the responsibilities of citizenship.
Unlock students’ understanding of landforms, bodies of water, and their impact on early civilizations through active, inquiry-driven lessons that connect physical geography to real-world relevance.
Help students understand the “why of where” with this lesson on spatial thinking—an essential skill in geography and global citizenship.
Crissie Ricketts and Kelly Hemmerling, authors of Fast Track to a 5 for AP® Precalculus, share their exam review strategies based on many years teaching AP® mathematics courses, and their experiences as leaders in the AP® Precalculus exam reading. This webinar will focus on how to help students with study strategies, understanding the structure of each of the four free-response task models, and suggest assignments for AP exam prep.
In this hands-on Environmental Science engineering project, students explore the real-world challenge of soil contamination by designing and testing a method for removing heavy metals using sunflowers.
In this environmental science engineering design challenge, students investigate the use of algae as a natural solution for capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. By building and testing carbon-capturing systems, students explore the science behind climate change mitigation while applying real-world data collection, analysis, and problem-solving skills.
In this innovative STEM challenge, students design and test a small-scale generator that transforms kinetic energy—such as wind or water flow, into electricity. By applying engineering practices and analyzing real data, students explore renewable energy solutions and learn how repurposed materials can power everyday devices like phone chargers or camp lights.
