    March Madness is an exciting time of year when the best college basketball teams square off for a final tournament. Many students are enthralled by the games and become energized by basketball. This lesson begins by having student view a short video clip

    “One Shining Moment” from the men’s NCAA basketball tournament. Students will then research information about basketballs through exploring the internet and conducting experiments. Students will also learn about energy conservation as they use energy equations to solve problems.

    Madness in March

    Dean Raizman

    The VIVA NEA Idea Exchange has been an amazing opportunity for diverse educators to work together to find solutions to the problem of violence in our schools. This writing collaborative identified five central issues that seem most critical to increasing the safety of our schools and our children: changing curriculum and school culture; addressing mental illness; improving building security; connecting schools and their communities; and dealing with guns in schools.

    Is there a method of treating cancer using nanotechnology to help target just the cancer cells? In this STEM unit

    students gain an understanding of the relative size of nanoparticles and how nanoparticles can be used to deliver medicine. The students will research how normal cells are different from cancer cells and research current innovative cancer treatments besides surgery and traditional chemotherapy. In the engineering design challenge

    students will be working as researchers in a race for a Nobel Prize in Medicine. They are to design and build a large-scale conceptual model of a targeted drug delivery system using nanoparticles that only kill cancer cells.

    Lasers can be used for many purposes such as targeting and communication. Light is refracted (“bent”) as it travels from one medium to another. This can be demonstrated by a straw appearing to be “bent” when placed into a glass of water. Throughout this inquiry STEM lesson

    student will have students investigate and apply lasers

    Snell’s Law and Trigonometry. Using the Engineering Design Process

    they verify Snell’s Law. They combine this knowledge with the Engineering Design Process to construct a laser communication system designed to “hit” a designated target submerged in water.

    I taught high school chemistry and physics. I was also a member of the Local Professional Development Committee as well as the Technology Committee. I had a supplemental duty of Educational Technology Support Professional which had me working with teachers providing professional development on the use and implementation of technology in the classroom.

    Science Teacher

    Physics Department

    I am responsible to instruct the PHY 1110 lab. This requires me to conduct a prelab discussion

    observe and assist students in completing the lab and grading the student's lab reports.
