This packet was created by me for my online biology students at West Hills Community College in Lemoore, CA.

This is a sequence of assignments for my Structural Geology course that guides students through the process of critically reading and analyzing scientific journal articles. For each article, I outline the general questions they should try to answer as they read any journal article, then give specific versions of each of those questions for the particular article assigned. For the last article, I leave it to the students to figure out what the specific versions of the questions would be for that article. The general questions are:

1. What basic research question are the authors trying to answer?
2. What makes that research question significant? (That is, why try to answer that question? Why does it matter?)
3. What data did the authors collect?
4. What is the authors' interpretation of their data?
5. Do you think that the data they collected supports their conclusions? Why or why not?

While the handouts below are specific to the articles we read in my class, these questions could be re-framed for any scientific journal articles that you would like your students to read and understand.

Students will read an article about the relevance of politics in Julius Caesar and compare it to a real-world experience as well as create a visual representation of its relation to specific scenes in Julius Caesar.

In this guide, you will find books, articles, and websites that help teachers of astronomy address some of the weird topics on the fringes of science that students sometimes hear about and want to have clarification for. Included are astrology, UFOs as alien spaceships, crop circles, denial of evolution and the big bang, the “face” on Mars, claims that NASA never landed astronauts on the Moon, and others.

In this activity students work in groups to investigate the problem of Gulf of Mexico hypoxia before developing mitigation strategies based on local contriubtions to the problem. The students present their ideas in a public meeting debate format from which a solution must be selected by the entire class.

Students are presented with a scenario (problem) to recommend whether the Gulf Stream is responsible for keeping Europe warm and the potential effects if polar ice were to continue melting. The students work in small groups and discuss the problem and identify the issue. They then list everything they know about the issue and develop a problem statement. They then ask what they need to know to solve the problem and search the Internet data sites, etc., and analyze the information gathered. They complete the activity by preparing an individual report and PowerPoint presentation where they make a recommendation or other appropriate resolution of the problem based on the data, visualizations, and background information.

THIS IS ABOUT HACKING AND HISTORY OF HACKERS.

Dear readers,I am pleased to share the resources which were collected through the journey of studying module of MES6245_REMERA_2022 Integration of ICT in Mathematics and Science Teaching and Learning which has the following  principles of ICT integration in education are expressed here as seven specific learning objectives. Students should be able to:Critically engage the pedagogical principles of ICT integration in education.Critically engage the pedagogical principles of ICT integration in teaching and learningExplore, review, communicate, and use appropriate and varied software packages, multimedia tools, simulations and applets and online resources to teach and learn effectivelyUse efficiently ICT for personal professional developmentWe have Identified more practical works , self-assessments ,exercises and Online guidelines which are enriched in education and help others students and teachers for getting more information.By concluding it, I humbly appreciate  the intriguing contribution assigned to us by Professor MUKAMA Evode who is expreienced more in online and virtual classroom and sharing good resources. Dear readers, we need your inputs and good contribution to use those contents and to receive your feedbacks.Thank you so much 

The advanced course syllabus that focuses on the structure of public relations agencies/departments, account management and planning, reputation management, relationship building, crisis communication, conflict resolution, messaging, writing, design, and new technologies.  

The resource provided is a semester long project that asks students to add to the historical record by researching and writing three narratives about marginalized individuals in modern US history. After the narratives are complete, students will compile their work on an ePortfolio using Google Sites. Provided are directions for the project as well as an exemple of the final ePortfolio linked at the bottom of the instructions.

Religion is a human activity that can be easily accepted only within the framework of reality that it creates for itself

Notes for HOST speaker working with learners on community-based activities; use with "Activity to connect with HOST community speaker to participate in community based activities together"

This course focuses on helping students learn common medical prefixes, suffixes, root words, combining forms, terms, and abbreviations used in a variety of healthcare settings.

This webpage includes H5P activities aimed to help students practice:
- hearing the correct pronunciation of medical terms - Dialog Cards
- speaking medical terms with instant feedback about correct vs. incorrect pronunciation - Speak the Words

All activities are meant to supplement the textbook Medical Terminology for Healthcare Professions (Nelson, A., & Greene, K., 2021), a fabulous open education resource (OER) which already contains many useful interactive activities.

A brief lesson on Taxonomy using the 5 Kindom classification system, along with phylogenetic tree.

In this unit, students will read The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian while meeting the learning targets of theme, character development, conflict, and use of literary devices. They will apply their knowledge by creating several artifacts to represent their learning.

This lesson is about the various types of shelter animals live in and how they adapt to their environment.

The following is a lesson on the Arthur Costa's Habits of Mind, which I typically use in my one-year below transfer composition course, but this is also applicable in college prep courses.This lesson is one of a series that introduces a habit of mind (Thinking Flexibly, in this case) in order to help build students' awareness of their own habits and how to modify them through observation (examining the cartoon and description of the habit), application (applying this habit in their own lives via reflection), and creation (creating a comic) that pushes students to use humor, another habit of mind, in order to further reflect on this habit. All in all, these multiple lessons culminate into a larger assignment, The Habits of Mind Portfolio, where students analyze and reflect on how the habits they've learned throughout the semester is seen in their classroom interactions, study habits, home life, and the processes of creating their compositional works done throughout the semester. 

On August 22, 1791 the only successful slave revolt began in the modern day nation of Haiti. Author Philippe Girard talks about how Haiti has changed since the revolution and he recounts the life of former slave Toussaint Louverture whose rose to lead the revolution and ultimately brought freedom to his people.
