Aww Snap vs Problems Involving Geometry

Aww snap, we have a mystery to solve! We need you to watch these bees closely and count how many times they visit the different color snapdragon flowers. Maybe then you can find out why the white snapdragons keep covering the mountainside! From the Smithsonian Science Education Center, Aww Snap! a Snapdragon Study is a life science game where players get to become field researchers. Observe and collect data, interpret your findings, and try to find your own answer to the mystery of the white snapdragons! Educational features: • Aligned to educational science standards for third to fifth grade. • Designed for emergent readers • Grounded in educational psychology research • Several open text prompts for active data interpretation and journaling • Unfolding gameplay lets students explore how their field changes from month to month and year to year. • Teachers can assess student responses through answers to prompts and track how student thinking changes as new data is collected • In-game tutorial to teach students how to play • Introduces students to ideas of pollination and biological competition • Fully standalone learning experience • Field Study mode designed to be used with SSEC Science for the Classroom Curriculum

The DOST Courseware is a locally-produced, all-original Filipino highly interactive multimedia educational application packages that are conceptualized, digitized and produced as spearheaded by the Science Education Institute (SEI-DOST) in partnership with the Advanced Science and Technology Institute (ASTI-DOST) and in cooperation with the Department of Education (DepEd), Philippine Normal University (PNU) and University of the Philippines-National Institute for Science and Mathematics Education (UP-NISMED), which aims to develop information and communication technology learning innovation to support the upgrading and improvement of science and mathematics education in the country. The DOST Courseware are provided for free to schools and are also made available online as supplemental resources for teachers and student as a fun and interactive approach to e-learning and blended learning. The Grade 7 DOST Courseware is composed of 120 lessons overall, 73 lessons in Science where it covered the domains on: Matter; Force, Motion and Energy, Living Things and Their Environment and Earth and Space while the 60 lessons in Mathematic covered the domains on: Numbers and Number Sense, Patterns and Algebra, and Geometry. The Grade 8 DOST Courseware is composed of 118 lessons overall, 61 lessons in Science where it covered the domains on: Parts and Functions, Ecosystems, Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits, Structures and Functions, Biodiversity, and Evolution, while the 57 lessons in Mathematics covered the domains on: Linear Equations, Quadratic Equations, Rational Algebraic Equations, Integral Exponents, Radicals, Arithmetic Sequence and Geometric Sequence. The themes of the courseware for Grades 7 and 8, Magicademy, Freddy’s Lab and D’nayao will surely amuse the users as they explore these distinct worlds while learning at the same time.
