Students use a pH sensor and Blockly coding software to create a program that identifies acidic and basic solutions. Additionally, students are introduced...
Blockly Extension: Chemical Reactions and Energy Transfer
After students have completed the Chemical Reactions and Energy Transfer lab, they are now challenged...
Chemical Reactions and Energy Transfer
Students use a temperature sensor, vinegar, sodium bicarbonate, and steel wool to investigate energy...
Blockly Extension: Types of Bonding
Students design code to determine whether a solid compound is ionic or covalent based on conductivity sensor measurements of aqueous solutions.
Step Counter
Students will use either the acceleration-y or acceleration-x //code.Node sensor and knowledge of their own gait to create a program that mimics a step...
Light Bulb Efficiency
Students apply their understanding of energy transfer and transformation to investigate and compare the efficiencies of two different light bulbs.
Automatic Nightlight
Students apply their understanding of light behavior to create a program that functions like a nightlight as well as investigating brightness (amplitude)...
Random Number Cube
Students will create a program, using the //code.Node motion sensor to mimic a number cube. Additionally, students will use basic probability concepts...
Magnetic Polarity
Students create a program, using the //code.Node magnetic field sensor, that will determine the polarity of a bar magnet.
