• Scratch
  Scratch is a graphical programming environment that makes it easier for kids (ages 8 and up) to create their own interactive stories, games, animations, and simulations -- and share their creations with one another online. To create programs in Scratch, kids snap together graphical programming blocks, much like LEGO bricks or puzzle pieces. As kids create and share Scratch projects, they learn important mathematical and computational concepts, while also learning to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively.

• Science Case Studies and Problem Based Learning: Studying Problems Using Prior Knowledge, Experiences, and Reasoning
  The use of case studies in science is actually a group of methods used to stimulate student critical thinking and inquiry learning. Science case studies can be complex or they can simple in design. The important component of any case study is to engage students in the learning process as they use problem based learning strategies to solve the case. Case studies in science are appropriate for all grade levels in science education. The degree of difficulty increases with grade level. This is due to students relying on their prior knowledge and experiences in science, which influences their reasoning ability.
