Simulation Based Impact Analysis of Signalized Intersections Project # 5: Classroom Implementation Kelli Lee Todd Bonds S.S./Science S.S./Science
“STOP IDLING” LessonStudent Objective: Students will collect delay and CO concentration of the idling buses at the school bus dock. Application Careers Societal Impact
Data Collection and Methods Direction of wind Buses CO Monitor Camera Crew, stopwatch, counters
Assessments Delay and CO concentrations Impact CONTRAST LIST and EXPLAIN PREDICT patterns EVALUATE and SUMMARIZE Modifications: actual intersection, full scale analysis, geometric map of turning movements, software
“May the Forces Be With You” Lesson Research Goal: How do the different weather patterns affect our environment? Student Objectives: Explore friction and weather conditions Analyze systems and predict outcomes
Activities Station 1: Vehicles (balanced and unbalanced forces)Station 2: Inclined plane Station 3: Flat surface Station 4: “Air Hockey”
Assessments Friction Stations: Explore friction and simulate weather, Apply prior knowledge, Compare and Contrast observations Friction Writing Assessment: Explain data, Relate to real world Modifications: spring scales, calculations, Vectors, displacement
QUESTIONS??? THANK YOU!!!
