Ecology: Common Assignment 3 For Students
The Common Assignment 3 section (for students) of Science Unit: Ecology helps students understand how human activity impacts ecosystems and explore evidence-based solutions geared toward lessening this impact. Students will conduct a lab simulation, complete an LDC research paper in the form of a National Geographic article, and deliver an oral presentation to share findings using visual aids. For easy use and customization, files are available in PDF and Word.
Dan Ryder teaches high school English and humanities, but his students still wind up learning computer-aided design and 3D printing. In his classes at Mt. Blue High School in Farmington, Maine, Ryder has students design and build 3D “fidgets” after learning about the impact of stress and studying social entrepreneurship.

Many teachers report spending hours every week searching online for lessons and materials to use in their classroom, and some spend even more time developing and adapting materials to align to their state’s standards.
