Dial Caliper Practice- Blue Block Activity for Engineering, Science, Technology
Do your students learn to use dial calipers? Do you have access to a 3D printer? Then this activity is for you! You can view the video preview here!This self-scoring Google Form presents students with a dimensioned orthographic drawing of "The Blue Block", except that the dimensions are mysteriously missing... Students must use a set of dial calipers to collect the 12 missing measurements from the 3D printer blocks and enter them into the form. This will require them to use the full range of the

Simple Machine Virtual Lab #5- Inclined Plane
A few years ago, I put together some great hands-on simple machine labs that allowed students to construct simple machines and test their performance using some Vernier digital force sensors. I ran into a problem when students were absent and needed to make up the labs, so I created these virtual labs, in which I perform all the tests on video and ask the students to interpret the results and make observations as they work their way through the Google Forms.When the world drove us to completely

Engineering Design Process Test (Version A)
This test is designed to follow a unit on the Engineering Design Process. It is written mainly for high schoolers, but would work nicely for middle school students also. The exact steps and terms in a design process vary from one process to the next, but I tried to write these questions in a way that would work for just about any version of the process you like to teach. You might want to tinker with the wording to suit your exact process or vocabulary preferences.This Google Form includes 15 mu

Fusion 360 Modeling Test (Version B)
This test is designed to follow a 3D modeling unit using Fusion 360. It is a doppelganger of the original test (Version A), which makes this a great test to use as a retake or practice test. I normally test my students in two parts, a "knowledge" test that asks about features of the program, tools, and CAD design in general, and a "skills" test in which they must read a technical drawing with dimensions and model the part accurately in Fusion 360. This Google Form includes both sections. The "kn

Google Earth and Interactive Topographic Maps Activity
This lesson is a great activity for showing the relationships between land features and topographic maps by using two GREAT Interactive sites that allow students to explore different locations around the globe as well as plotting latitude and longitude. This lesson also touches on landscape formation, and has a small research portion that allows students to look into the formation of a location of their choice. This is such a fun way to let students take control of their own learning as well as

VEX IQ Parts Labels - Complete Bundle
This is a COMPLETE BUNDLE OF VEX IQ PARTS LABELS. My robotics classroom was getting out of control and students were having a hard time finding parts. I made these labels to organize my parts. I suggest printing out the labels in color. Cutting them up, laminating them and then taping them onto your bins based on how you organize your parts.Because it's a google document you can scale the parts photos to meet the size of your storage. This particular file does not have a ton of labels. I plan to
