Foreword

A pupil's experiences between the ages of.I 1 and 16 probably shape his

ultimate view of science and of the natural wodd.. During these years

( most youngsters become more adept at thinking conceptually. Sinceconcepts are at the heart officience, this is Ole age at which most stu-

dents first :gain the ability to study science in a really organized way:

Here, too, the commitment for or against science as an interest or a

vocation is often made.Paradoxically, the students at ,this critical age have been the Ones

least'affected by the reCent effort to produce new science instructional

materials. Despite a', number of commendable efforts to iniProve the

situation, the middle years stand today as a comparatively weak link in

science:education betWeen the rapidly changing elementary curticulum

and the recently revitalized high school science coursek. This volume

and its accom ying 'materials represent one attempt to provide a

sound a.. ch to instruction for this relatively uncharted level.

e outset the organizers :of the .ISCS Project decided that

\..wouls be shortsighted and unwise to try to fill the giff in middlesehool Fience,education by simply writing another textbodk..We chose

instead to challenge some of the most firmly established COncepts

about how to teach and just what science material can ant should be,

, taught to adolescents. The JKS staff have tended to Mis.trusr what

authorities believe abOut schools, teachers, children, and teaching Until

we ,have hadlhe chance to test these assumptiqns in actual classrobmswith real children. As.conflicts have arisen, our policy hasIven toselymore upon -what:, we saw happening ifi the schools than uppn what

authorities said could or would happen. tris largely because Of this

policy that the,IKS materials repiesent a sUbstantiaT.departiire from

the norm, ,

The priMary difference between the 1SCS program and More con-

ventional approaches is the fact- that it allows each ituc6t,to trOel

at his own pace, and it permits the scope and sequence of instructionto vary with his interests, abilities, and background. The 1SCS writershave systematically tried to give.the student more of a role in decidingwhat he should study next and how soon,he should study it. When thematerials are used as intended, the 1SCS teacher serves moie as a"task easer" than, "task mastN" It is his job to help the studentanswer the quesyons that arise Om his own study rather than to tryto anticipate ana package what the student needs to know.

There is nothing radically new in the ISCS approach to instruction.Outstanding teachers from Socrates to Mark Hopkins have stressed the

' need to personalize education. ISCS has tried to do something more_than pay lip service to this goal. 1SCS' mlor contribution has been todesign a system whereby an average teacher, operating under normalconstraints, in an .ordinary classroom with ordinary children, can/ in-deed give maximum attention to each student's progress. ,

The development of the ISCS mhterial has been a group effort fromi

the outset. It began in 1962, when outstanding educators met to decide-what mightr,be done to improve middle-grade science teaching. Therecommendations of these conferences were converted into a tentativeplan for a set of instructional materials by a smalt group of Florida':

ducted on the Florida State campus du lig 1964 and 1965 resulted in:State University faculty members. .Sm 11-scale writing sessions oon-,i :

pilot curriculum materials that were tested in selectefl Florida schoolsduring the 1965-66 school year. All this preliminary work Was sup-ported by funds generously provided by The Florida State University. ,

In june of 1966, financial support wasTrovided by the United States t,

Office of Education, and the preliminary effort was formalized intothe ISCS Project. Later, the National Science Foundation made several ad9itional grants in suppOrt of the ISCS effort. v

- The first draft: of these materials,was produced in 1968, during a'summer wAing \conference: The. conferees were, scientists, science

educators, and jilnior high schOol teachers drawn from all Over theUnited States. The originill materials have been revised three timOs

, prior to their publication in this volume, M'ore than 150 writers havecontributed' to the maternils, ind4nOre than 180,000 children, in 46

: itates, have been` involved in their field testing. * ..: ..

We sincerely hope:, that the teaChers and studentwho will use this:,. material will find that the great amount of time, money, ancl efro4:ii:;

that has..gone into its deVelopment has been worthwhile.

How Well Am I Doing?

,

You probably wonder what you are expected to learn, in this sciencecourse. You would like to know how well you are doing. This sectionof the book will help you find out. It contains a Self-Evaluation foreach chapter. If you can answer all the questions,you're doing verywell.

The Self-Evaluations are for your benefit. Your teacher will not usethe rtsults to give you a grade: Instead, you, will grade yourself, sinceyou are able to check your own answers as yott go along.

Here's how to use the Self-Evaluations. When you finish a chapter, .

take the SW-Evaluation for that chapter. After answering the questions,.turn to the Answer Key that is at the end of this section. The AnswerKey will tell you whether your answers were right or wrong.

Seme questions can be answered in more than one way. Your answersto these questions may not quite agree with those ih the Answer Key.If you, miss a guestion, review the material upon which it was basedbefore going on to the next.chapter. Page'references are frequently

included in the Answer Key to help you review.On the next to last page of this .booklet, there is a grid, which you

can use to keep a record Of your own progress.,

k Notes for the Teacher

The following sets of questio;is have been de'signed for self-eviduation by your students. The intent of the self-eValuationquestions is to inform the.student of his, progress. The .answers

are provided for the students to give them positive reinforce-ment. For this reason it is important that each Student be

allowed to answer these questions without feeling the.pressuresnormally associated with_testing. We ask that you do not gradethe'student on any of the 'Chapter self-evaluation questions orin any way make him feel that thisjs a comparative device.

The student should answer the questions for each chapter assoon as he finishes the chapter. After answeringthe questions,

he should cheCk his answers immediately by referring to theappropriate set of answers in the back of his Student Record.Book.

There are some questions thai require planning or assistancefrom the classroom teacher or aide: .Instructions for these arelisted in color o.n the pages that follow. You should check thislist carefully, noting any item that may require your presence

preparation. Only items which require sonie planning orassistance are listed.

-You should check casionally to see if your students are.completing the progre. chart on page.53.

1111.ILEVALUATION

C. The height reached by the rockets. Remember that these are water rockets and you want

to compare their performance.

1-2. No. They won't measure the same height because student A is holding his quadrant higher

than student B's. Since A and B are the same distance from the launch site but A's quadrant

is higher, he will most likely measure a smaller angle. When A consults the Height Converter

Table he will then record a sntaller height. If the student who is launching the rocket sends it

off so that the flight is not straight up, ntrone can predict any of the angles. If you aren't sure

about this, you should take a look at text pages 6 and 7 again.

1-3. a. You should have found the height to be 4373 m. Take another Irk at the table if you

had problems.b. The calculated height shOuld be about.19.25 m, which' is the average of the two heights

of 21.0 m and 17.5 m found by the two observers. If you stop to think about how you measured

the angles, you might agree that it would be pretty reasonable to round off the answr to

19.3 m or evert 19 m.O. M long as the rocket went straight, it is unlikely that you wOuld ever get a sighting angle

of 90' unless you were stonding right at the launching site. The rocket never gets high enough

to give you the effect that it is directly overhead when you stand 25 m away from the launching

site.d. .Compare your answer with the answers that other students got. If youe answer seems

to'be different from theirs; review text pages 7 and 8 and check your answer 'with your teacher.

14. The average of the height found by two or more obserlers generilly gives a mote reliable

measurement than that obtained by a single observer. You'are assuming, of course, that all the

observers are equally reliable and have equally good eyesight. If all the observers are equally

unreliable and have equally bad eyesight, thil technique is known as a pooling of ignorance.

14. a, Your answer should have included the amount of water you poured into the rocket and

the amount of air that you pumped in. Yon may also have included other variables, such as the

-angle at which the rocket was launched.. If you did not include the first twó variables mentioned,

you should take another look at Problem Break v1-1. . .

b. Rocket B is the cone you should have chosen. If you picked the wrong one, you should

take another look at your data from Problem Break 1-1. Perhaps you might even want to try

the vatious combinatiOns. pictured ,to.rnake sure. .

1-6. Your experimental design should have specified that you would use at least one liquid otherthan water. You should have included the idea that you keep all the variables constant except

one. For example, you might vary the liquid that the rocket contains While keeping the numberof strokes on the air pump, the launching angle. etc., constant. This idea of,changing only one

thing at a time is perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind when doing any experiment.Here's something to think about: Since the same volume of two different liquids may have different

weights, should you keep the weight, or the volume, constant or does it matter?

SELF-EVALUAT1ON 2

2-1. As the air rushes.out of the balloon in one direction, the balloon_ moves in the oppositedirection. If you have never tried this;you may want to try it out at home. Maybe you can even

come up with an explanation as to why the balloon does nbt travel in a nice straight path like

the rocket. does. Do tail tins help?

2-2. b. increase. Take.another look at Problem Break.2-2 it you missed this one. You might even.want.to try to devise an experiment that uses a liquid other than water to see what happenswhen you keep the rate of flow constant but change the mass of the liquid thatemerges from

the jet each second. .

2-3. a. decrease. Think about what would happen if the water emerged slower and slower from

your water rocket. How much thrust would there be if the water stopped emerging? Take anotherlook at Problem Break 2-2 if you are still having difficulty.

2-4. a. The force should be about 8 newtons. If you were off by a small amount, don't worryabout.it. However, if your answer was smaller than 6 newtons or greater than 10 newtons, you

had better take another look at the graph.. b. To get a force of 30 newtons, you need a water flow of about 18 grams/10 sec.

c. You should have, predicted a force of around 50 newtons. This process of extending thecurve to predict what will happen is called "extrapolation:" It is useful but it can get you intotrouble. Fol. example, auppose we tried to increase the water flow to 24 grams/10 sec and foimdthat the "pressure broke the plastic nozzle. Our prediction of 50 newtons would be all wrong.

2-5. The water rocket that is launched on land will have a much greater thrust. zouryork onProblemBreak 2-3 should have *hewn you that as you increase the pressure outside the noitle,the thrust decreases. The pressure outside reduces the amount:of mass ejected/10 sec and thespeed at which.it is tiected: At the bottohi of the ocean the pressure outside tile yocket wouldbe so great' that it would be unlikely for any water to be ejected from the rocket:at II If youhad difficulty with this question,'read ofer, Problem Break 2-3 again and check your ilata.

3-2. No. The rocket would not lit) ott unless there was an upward unbalanced fore acting on

it. If the thrust of the engines just equaled the weight of the rocket, the forces would be balanced,and thepcket would not move. 'The thing to remember is that unless an unbalanced force actson an object, it moves with a constant speed (which might be a weed of zero) in a straight line.ft you had problems with this, do Activities 3-1 to 3-3 again and read over page 26.

3-3. a. Pattern C shows an increasing speed. The drops are getting farther and farther apart.b. Pattern B indicates a decreasing speed. As the cart travels along, the drops are getting

closer an* closer together.C. Pattcn A indicates that the cart is traveling at a constant speed. The cart is traveling

the same distaIçc between each drop.d. The ave e distance between drops is 18 mm. This is the.average of measurements of

5,11, 15,-21, 25, art )1 mitt. If your measurements do not agree. make-sure that you measuredfrom the center of one dot to the center of the next dot.

S. Pattern C indicates a cart that is being pushed or pulled by a constant unbalanced force.

If you chose pattern B, you were almost right. In pattern B there is a constant unbalanced fome,but this time it is acting in the opposite direction of the motion of the cart_ If you had difficultywith these questions, you should take another look at your data from Activities 3-4 ,to 3-9. Youmight read over pages 27 to 30 in ttie text as well.

3-4. As long as there is an unbalanced force acting in the same direction the rocket is traveling,the speed of the rocket will increase.

3-5. a. The mass was larger for run A. If you look at the dot patterns for the two runs, yAvucan see that the dots are closer together in run A, which-means that the speed is not increasMg

as rikddly.b. Your explanation should ipcludc the idea that since the speed of the cart is not increasing

as rapidly during run A as during rua B. even though the same force is acting, the mass must

be larger during run A. Try Activity 3:10 again if your answer (lid not include the ideas suggestedabove.

SELF-EVALUAT1ON 4

4-1. a. All the balls will hit the ground at the same time.b. Your answer should indicate that the time of fall is determined only by the vertical distance

e. Balls C and D will travel farthest.d. Since C and D have a horizontal speed when they start to fall, the path they travel is

longer than the paths of A and B. Remember they travel hrther but it takes them the same amountof time betause their speed is faster.

4-2. a. During the first 16 km the rocket is picking up speed quite rapidly and since the air frictiondepends on the speed, the air frictional drag increases quite rapidly. Read over page 44 in the

text for a more complete explanation.b. Point 2 is max-Q. At point 2 the drag reaches its peak, and this means this must be the

point of max-Q. .

. C. The rocket is traveling .most rapidly at pOint 3. Remember that a large rocket's speed

increases steadily as it climbs through the atmosphere.0. As you get hjgher and higherjn the atmosphere, the air gets thinner and thinner. This

means that there are)fewer air particles to rub against the rocket surface to produce air friction.

4-3. You may have had to think about this question a little. It sounds like a nice idea, doesn'tit? The problem of courseis that the air friction at 40 km would he too large and the satellite

would slow down and return to the earth's surface. .

I.

4-4. The period of a satellite is the amount of tirne.reqhired for a satellite to make one complete

orbit. For satellites in parking orbit, the period is abodt 88 minutes. You might take another look

at page 48 if you didn't remember the answer to this question.

4-5. The graph is shown on the next page.

4-6. When an object is at 2 radii, its weight is that of a similar object on the sorface of IferculesYou should have been looking for the distance where the object's weight was 2(10 N X (1) =50 N. Read over page 47 again if you missed this question.

4-7. At 5 radii its weight will be A of what it would be at the surface_ Take a look at your graph.The object weighs 200 N at the surface. Out at 5 radii thc same object has a weight of 8 N.

'Thus its weight is An, or A, as large as it would be at the surface.

4-4. sa. The period of satellite A is greater than the period of satellite B. If you had .difficultywith this question, take another look at pages 48 and 49.

b. The gravitational pull on satellite A is less than the pull on satellite B. Take another look'at the graph you drew for question 4-5 ii you had problems answering this question.

4-9. Slightly greater than. Take a second look at thc possible paths of a satellite shown on 'textpages 50 and 51 if you missed this one.

4-10. a. The orbiting speed at the surface would be 2.5 km/sec. This is,similar to the calculation

shown on text pages 41 and 42.b. The orbiting speed would be slower. Remember that the farther it is above the surface,

the slower the satellite has to travel.

SELFEVALUATION 5

5-1. They prefer these times because thc longer shadows cast by the An in the early morning

or late attemoon reveal more detail and texture in surfaces than the short shadows cast around

noon. If you take photos, this is something to keep in mind and try out. If you missed this question,

you should try Activities 5-7 and 5-8 again.

5-2. You should have indicated that the mass and the speed affect the energy of a moving object.

5-3. a. Crater B was formed by the steel ball that had fallen farther. Try Activity 5-6 again

you had problems answering this question.b. Crater B was formed by the heavier mass. You should review yonr data for Activity 5-5

if you had difficulty answering this question.

5-4. The diagram below shows thc relative positions of the hills and craters.

5-5. a. You should have identified crater B as being the older crater.b. You should have noticed that crater A seems to cot into (late! B at the nearest point

and that ciater B contains debris that was thrown out of crater A when it was formed. Also,

the edges of crater A are sharper than those of crater B.

5-6. Your answer may have included such characteristics as a bowl-shaped crater with its floor,a little below thr level of the surronndmg land a round shape with a raised rim, and ejecta scattered ,

on the surrounding landscape.

5-7. Your answer should include thc idea that the falling object ejected sonic of the lighter material

from below dr surface of 'the moon and splashed it across the dukei material of the surface.

You may have also mentioned that the surface may have been darkened by radiation from the

sun. Review Activities 5-11 through 5-13 in youi text if you had difficulty with this question.

SELF-EVALUATION 6,1>

6-1. a. Crater B was formed by an object-that caused both thc surface and the object to bet-ome

molten when it hit.b. Your answer should have included the idea that the central peak of crater B was formed

by an inflow of material during the later part of the impact. Review pages 79 through 81 in the

text if you arc unsure of your answer_

6-2. You should have looked for such things as a bowl-shaped (impact) or cone-shaped (Volcanic)

crater, the floor of the crater below level at the.surrounding ground (impact) or above the level

of the surroundings (volcanic), and evidence of a lava flow (volcanic) or widely scattered ejecta

(impact).

6-3. One possible cause might be an underground flow of magma that would have lifted the

surface rock. A large flow might have caused a large'enough bulge to produce a mountain range.

Review text pages 85 through 87.

St4...F-EVALUATION 7

7-1. You woUld see the moon as in diagram B. If you had difficulty visuidizing the situation,

you may want to sct up 'your model of the earth-moon-sun systein.as you did for Activity 7-3

and see what it looks like.

7-2. The diagram below shows the position of the terminator.

Terminator

Check over text page 95 if you forgot what the terminator was.

7-3. Your answer should have included the idea that the moon rotates on its axis in the same

amount of time that it takes to make one revolution around the earth. As a result the same side

of the moon always faces the earth and we can never see the far.side. See text page 97.

My ProgressKeep track of your progress in the course, by plotting the percent

correct for each Self Evaluation as you complete it.

Number correctPercent correct X 100

Number of questibns

To find how you are doing, draw lines connecting these points. After

you've t6ted-yotirself on all chapters,-you may want -to draw a best-fit

line. But in the meantime, unless you always get the same percent

correct, your graph will look like a _series of mountain peaks.
