Güngör Cabbar, Burcu – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2020
Virtual water is the amount of water that we ignore in water consumption and is considerably higher than the visible water we see in daily uses. Realizing the water spent in the production processes of objects can cause us to change our consumption habits. In 1979, Joseph Cornell presented a four-step framework called Learning Flow to move nature…

Lee, Carole K.; Ensel Bailie, Patti – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2019
Nature trails can be used as a tool for young children to learn about inquiry-based science and math in an open and natural environment. A nature trail provides the opportunity for children to develop their gross motor skills by walking, hiking or playing on the trail and enhance social skills by doing outdoor activities with their friends. The…

Isik, Hakan; Alpaslan, Muhammet Mustafa – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2018
Lab activities have been innovated and progressed to fulfill the purpose that students need to experience physics concepts through hands-on and minds-on interactions. However, student-centered and conceptual activities in physics labs are challenged with time and material constraints that degrades the merits of the learning environment. This study…
