Imagine an activity that takes little class time but engages students in current events and encourages them to speak with their families about what’s happening in the world. Teacher Megan Kelly longed for just such an activity and finally found it in “fantasy geopolitics.”. The post Enliven Current Events with Fantasy Geopolitics first appeared on MiddleWeb.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

On Friday, November 18th we hosted a special field trip, titled “What’s Engineering?”. On this day, sixty fifth-grade students from the Edison K-8 school classes came in to learn more about physics: Catapults and Egg Drop. After a quick introduction to Northeastern and the Center for STEM Education, we opened the floor to Nicolas Fuchs, Assistant Coordinator for the Center for STEM Education with expertise in Mechanical Engineering.

Have you had this happen to you before? You consume a large meal like thanksgiving with lots of food and turkey and soon after the meal you just can't stay awake. Why does this happen? Let’s start with the amino acids which are the building blocks of proteins. Turkey contains tryptophan. When we eat foods that contain tryptophan , this amino acid travels in the blood from the digestive system and later enters the brain.
