| A Science Odyssey Airplanes. Penicillin. Radio. The computer. DNA. Apollo 8. Nylon. This PBS program takes you on a journey through a 100 years of history of science and technology. Site features historic information, educational resourcs, and games. Videos and companion books are available. | | American Society of Civil Engineers Founded in 1852, the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) is America's oldest national engineering society. Their website provides access to educational resources, career guidance, news and policy items, and their publication--Civil Engineering. | | Amusement Park Physics This site, put together by Annenberg/CPB, looks behind the scenes at the physics principles and engineering design process used to create different amusement park rides. | | Benchmarks for Science Literacy Benchmarks for Science Literacy is the AAAS Project 2061 statement of what all students should know and be able to do in science, mathematics, and technology by the end of grades 2, 5, 8, and 12. Benchmarks provides educators with sequences of specific learning goals that can be used to design a core curriculum. The nature of technology and the designed world benchmarks relate directly to technological literacy. | | Center for Occupational Research and Development The Center for Occupational Research and Development (CORD) is a national nonprofit organization that promotes innovations in education to prepare students for careers and higher education. CORD assists educators in secondary schools and colleges through new curricula, teaching strategies, professional development, and partnerships with community leaders, families, and employers. | | Center to Advance the Teaching of Technology and Science Established in 1998, The Center to Advance the Teaching of Technology & Science (CATTS) aims to strengthen professional development of technology teachers and advance technological literacy. Their website includes links to workshops, publications, and research in the area of technological literacy. | | Children Designing and Engineering CD&E is developing curriculum based on design and technology education that addresses state and National standards in science, math, technology and workplace readiness skills. This site includes resources and learning links. | | Curriculum Guides for K-12 from AIA These educational handouts and teaching materials for the K-12 classroom promote architecture and design across the curriculum. These materials are part of the Amierican Architectural Foundation website. | | Danish Board of Technology The Danish Board of Technology disseminates knowledge about technology, its possibilities and its effects on people, society, and the environment. This website contains newletters, links, and resources on a variety of technologies and technology assessment tools. | | DESIGN Doable engineering science investigations geared for non-science students (DESIGN) are design-based activity modules for use in physical science and technology courses in grades 5 through 9. The engineering projects include: batteries, bridges, electromagnets, gravity cars, solar houses, and windmills. Students make prototypes of specific designs and are then challenged to improve them in some way, such as by increasing their speed while working within constraints, such as size or budget. DESIGN II is a one-year physical science and technology course for middle schools, based on the engineering projects developed and tested through the DESIGN project. |
