There was also a road test where the students could choose the engines for different automobiles and see the results. For example, If they chose a small engine for the monster truck, the truck moved very slowly. This showed them that the bigger the mass, the greater the force they would need in order to move it. The students really enjoyed this website and caught on very quickly to the concepts. Finally, the students looked back at their group chart paper and wrote in their science journals about what they thought and what they now know about Sir Isaac Newton and his 3 laws of motion.
Students use technology tools to process data and report results.
Students evaluate and select new information resources and technological innovations based on the appropriateness to specific tasks. Students employ technology in the development of strategies for solving problems in the real world.
