Dear LOR user,

Thank you for being a big part of this community. To better support the initiatives around open educational resources in the state of Michigan, all resources on the Michigan Virtual Learning Object Repository (LOR) are being moved to #GoOpen Michigan on September 30th, 2018. During the transition, our LOR will be moved to an archived state, not allowing new user registration or new content to be added. An email with more details was sent to registered users of the LOR in September. To make use of the great resources on the platform, we encourage you to create an account and add your own new resources to the #GoOpen Michigan platform.

GPS by Star Motion Video

Submitted by avheuvel on Wed, 05/28/2014 - 12:31pm.
This video is used to demonstrate how observing the motion of stars can allow you to find your latitude on the earth. This video can be used very early in the discussion of star motion and is a nice compliment to the simulation found in the video, which is available here. http://astro.unl.edu/naap/motion2/starpaths.html

Slope Project

Submitted by jdewitt on Wed, 05/28/2014 - 10:06am.
This project was designed for an Algebra 1 online course. The course still is designed to teach slope, even though this standard is now technically taught in the 7th and/or 8th grade. The intent was to design a project to get students to see slope in a different manner, using percent grade change of hiking paths.
