6th–7th Grade Math Flip Book: Percent of Change
This 6th–7th Grade Math Flip Book provides students with a clear, step-by-step process for calculating percent of change. Designed as a visual reference, this resource helps students work through a multi-step percent problem by organizing each decision in a consistent order — reducing common mistakes when determining increase versus decrease. Students follow a 5-step process: Find the amount of change Divide by the original amount Convert the decimal to a percent Identify the percent of chang

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Hearing: How Much Louder to Notice a Difference?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.1 for hearing) to calculate the just noticeable difference (JND) in loudness for ten stimulus intensities ranging from 20 to 110 dB. After completing the data table, students plot intensity on the x-axis and JND on the y-axis, identify the linear relationship, and explain in everyday language how the JND grows proportionally with intensity. A real-world application problem asks students to calculate the minimum loudness increase a concert-goer

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Smell: How Much Stronger Before You Notice?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.05 for smell) to calculate JNDs for ten odor concentrations ranging from 20 to 500 AU (arbitrary units). After completing the data table and plotting the graph, students describe the linear intensity-JND relationship and explain how the olfactory system's sensitivity relates proportionally to baseline concentration. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum odor increase a fragrance evaluator named Parfumia would detect at 120

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Temperature: How Hot Before You Feel the Diff.
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.07 for temperature) to calculate JNDs for ten temperatures ranging from 10 to 55°C. The lab introduces students to thermal sensation as a measurable, Weber's Law-governed sensory modality. After graphing and identifying the linear relationship, students explain how the JND for temperature grows with baseline temperature. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum temperature increase a hot tub enthusiast named Chilldaddy would

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Touch: How Much Pressure Before You Feel More?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.14 for touch/pressure) to calculate JNDs for ten pressure intensities ranging from 50 to 1500 g. The wide range of values — from light touch to heavy pressure — gives students data that clearly illustrates the proportional scaling of JND across a broad sensory range. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum pressure increase a massage therapist named Squishy would nee

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Vision: How Much Brighter Before Your Eye Notices
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.02 for brightness) to calculate JNDs for ten light intensities ranging from 100 to 3000 candelas (cd). The very low k value for vision — the lowest in the collection alongside kinesthesis — demonstrates that the visual system is among the most sensitive to proportional changes, requiring only a 2% change for detection. After graphing, students note the linear relationship and discuss the implications of the small k value. A real-world problem a

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Taste: How Much Saltier Before You Notice?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.20 for saltiness) to calculate JNDs for ten salt concentrations ranging from 1 to 40 g/L. The relatively high k value for taste (compared to vision and kinesthesis) gives students data that demonstrates taste's lower sensitivity to proportional changes. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship and explain what the larger k value implies about gustatory discrimination. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Kinesthesis: How Much Heavier Before You Feel It?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.02 for kinesthesis) to calculate JNDs for ten lifted weights ranging from 100 to 5000 g. Sharing the same k value as vision (0.02), this lab allows for cross-modal comparison of sensitivity and demonstrates that the kinesthetic system — despite sensing a very different type of stimulus — matches visual sensitivity in proportional discrimination. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship. A real-world problem asks students to cal
