A Day in the Life of Macromolecules Storyboard Project
A carbohydrate walks into a championship game. A lipid is trying to survive a food shortage. A protein has a job to do, and a nucleic acid is carrying the instructions. That is the idea behind this Macromolecules Storyboard Project: students turn carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids into characters, then use those characters to tell a biologically accurate story. Instead of another macromolecules chart, students create a storyboard booklet that shows how the molecules work toget

Practical Straight Line Fitting
This lesson is a practical guide to fitting straight lines to data points with error bars. It explains how to determine the error on the fit so that the experimental result has an associated error. It is NOT a mathematical explanation of least squares minimization but a guide intended for high school students with experimental data. It discusses both linear and log plots. It is based on a simple treatment of so-called "maximal" errors typically used in high school. In this context it is generall
