Thrill Ride! An Event-Based Science Module. Student Edition. Force and Motion Module.

This book is designed for middle school students to learn scientific literacy through event-based science. Unlike traditional curricula, the event-based earth science module is a student-centered, interdisciplinary, inquiry-oriented program that emphasizes cooperative learning, teamwork, independent research, hands-on investigations, and exploration of authentic tasks. Students use this book to work as a cooperative team to respond to a request for proposals from an amusement park developer. (KHR)
