Product Description
Problem Solving In Science
by Ann Edson and George Ridgeway. (First published in 1987. Geared to Middle School.)
This truly unique interactive DVD duo teaches your students about the scientific method by having them use it to solve exciting problems. After describing the scientific method with a simple analogy to the steps you might take to improve your performance in basketball, the DVD immediately involves students in solving historical scientific problems including:
-Duplicate Galileo's observations of the moons of Jupiter and decide whether his findings indicate that the sun or the Earth is the center of the universe.
-Compare the three plans that NASA was considering for going to the moon.
-Plot a hurricane on a tracking chart and decide whether to issue an evacuation order.
Running time: Two DVD's, approximately 20 minutes each. |
