Are mummies pieces of history, or the sacred remains of human ancestors?
In this lesson students will learn about music history. This lesson will go over the four main periods of music, the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Contemporary Periods. Provided is a video presentation and a reading to help students complete the assignment given. The lesson material should be viewed before the writing assignment is completed, but students are expected to take notes from the lesson materials on their assignment in the notes section.
The Music Librarianship Course working group developed this syllabus from 2019-2021, centering the principles of critical music librarianship with a particular focus on social justice and antiracist practices. This working group was funded by a Music Library Association grant. The syllabus may be used as a template for library educators or as a self-guided independent study for Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) students attending programs without a specialization in music librarianship. Learn more about our process in our white paper on the need for online music librarianship offerings and our MLA conference poster on the course planning project are in Humanities Commons.
A collection of PDF fillable worksheets aligned with most common instrumental music method books. These can be attached to an LMS so students can access, complete, and submit electronically.
Mutation Detective is a text-based game using the platform Twine. In this game, students choose “cases” of genetic mutations. They are first given the original and mutated amino acid sequences, then can go further to the original and mutated RNA sequences. The goal is to guess what kind of mutation has occured and provide evidence for it. There are also checkpoints throughout for them to take notes in their science notebook.
See the attached document for the project to give to students. It's meant to be submitted virtually, but you could likely have them submit in person as well.
This assignment is given near the end of the semester when the students have had a chance to learn about a lot about the fossil record. The major goal is for the students to have the opportunity to delve into a topic in more detail than we can normally do during the course of the semester. It also allows the student to demonstrate that they have internalized some of the major ideas in the class including the geologic time scale, fossils and fossilization, past environments and the roles organisms play in their ecosystem. Lastly, it should be fun and enjoyable assignment for the students.

This assignment titled “My Interdisciplinary Perspective on Climate Change” was developed in Fall 2020 as the signature assignment of the STEM Learning Community LC50 for students enrolled in the Biology program of the Natural Sciences department, at LaGuardia Community College, CUNY. The assignment targets Integrative Learning and Global Learning Core Competencies, and Digital/Oral Communication Abilities.
For this STEM Cluster, “Climate Change” is the shared theme that connects learning from the different disciplines and helps build students’ overall knowledge on an imperative issue that our planet currently faces. Work on this assignment entails a narrated digital student presentation on the various aspects of Climate Change such as causes, global effects and manifestations, and possible remedial solutions or suggested actions. Students also practice summarizing the research and learning on this theme from the various courses undertaken in the first semester.
The main goal of this signature assignment is to make connections among the ideas, experiences and learning acquired among the different courses, assignments and co-curricular activities of this semester that contributed to the students’ understanding of this global phenomenon. This high-stakes assignment is worth 20% of the final grade in NSF 101: First Year Seminar for Natural Sciences (program-core course). Students are guided by all four instructors of the Learning Community, which comprises of the courses- NSF 101, MAT 115: College Algebra and Trigonometry, ENG 101: Composition I, and HUC 106: Public Speaking, through a 12-week scaffolded process to complete work and showcase their findings as a well-informed Biology major and responsible citizen of society. This assignment meets the NSF101 learning objectives and helps the students to hone their skills on the targeted Core Competencies (Global/Integrative Learning) and Communication Abilities (Digital/Oral), thereby increasing their chances of being successful in the subsequent 200-level classes of their major.
LaGuardia's Core Competencies and Communication Abilities
Student artifacts were deposited for this assignment at the end of the semester for college-wide Benchmark Readings 2021, and the Fall 2020 Learning Communities Seminar (as the LC assignment). Due to the serious COVID-related situation in New York state in Fall 2020, including high incidence of the disease and the associated challenging and technical issues at some students’ end, more emphasis was placed on helping the students learn how to prepare a digital presentation embodying their work on science, data analysis, writing and communication skills, while incorporating elements of integrative and global learning from all four classes on Climate Change. However, when the assignment is implemented again in the future, both Digital and Oral Communication Abilities will be fostered in all student work. It is noteworthy that some students managed to cover both these abilities in their work in Fall 2020 also.
This lesson meets the following learning objectives:
1. Construct a timeline of Japanese modern history from the 1950s to the 1990s
2. Analyze visual and literary sources to summarize themes of different Japanese time periods, including the impact of modernization and new technology
3. Compare and contrast different time periods and how the difference is portrayed in Japanese media
Assignment guiding students throught the my plate website and teaching them the different requirements for each
This would be a great resource for students to identify different levels of relationships they have in their lives and self reflect what these relationships mean to them.
Within this collection you will find lessons, videos, handouts, and PowerPoint slides you can use in your classroom. You will also find a brief summary of each resource with the source sited for further exploration, appropriate grade level, approximate lesson length, and learning standards.

ESL: American English Pronunciation I introduces English language learners to the basic sounds of American English. Students will learn how to recognize, produce, and differentiate between the various sounds of American English. They will also strengthen oral communication and reading skills. Special attention will be directed towards the correction of vocal techniques when pronouncing difficult sounds in letters, words, and sentences.
