Our Mission Is
STEM Education Increase Scores, Inspire Tomorrow's Leaders, and Close the Achievement Gap

Created by Teachers,
for Teachers Research-proven, 5e-based, and Adaptable to Any Classroom

Built for
STEM Educators Award-winning Curriculum Built on Hands-on, Real-world Learning

Everything We Do Relates to All Things STEM

We don't play favorites at STEMscopes - we love every aspect of STEM. Students deserve an education that reveals the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and math, and teachers should have all the tools they need to explore these subjects with their students. Blended learning is key to achieving these goals, so we offer almost all our content in digital, kit, and print.

Teacher Focused Professional Development for Continued Success

We know that it takes time for teachers to adjust to a new curriculum. That's why we personally train them throughout the entire implementation process. We remain available to answer your questions, even after the adoption of STEMscopes. For teachers interested in deepening their STEM knowledge, we offer a variety of self-paced STEM certification programs through our partnership with the National Institute of STEM Education (NISE).

Roller Coaster

For many people, there is only one reason to go to an amusement park: the roller coaster. Some people call it the "scream machine," with good reason. The history of this ride reflects a constant search for greater and more death-defying thrills.

How does a roller coaster work?
What you may not realize as you're cruising down the track at 60 miles an hour is that the coaster has no engine. The car is pulled to the top of the first hill at the beginning of the ride, but after that the coaster must complete the ride on its own. You aren't being propelled around the track by a motor or pulled by a hitch. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is what drives the roller coaster, and all of the kinetic energy you need for the ride is present once the coaster descends the first hill..

Once you're underway, different types of wheels help keep the ride smooth. Running wheels guide the coaster on the track. Friction wheels control lateral motion (movement to either side of the track). A final set of wheels keeps the coaster on the track even if it's inverted. Compressed air brakes stop the car as the ride ends.

Wooden or steel coaster: Does it make a difference?
Roller coasters can be wooden or steel, and can be looping or nonlooping. You'll notice a big difference in the ride depending on the type of material used. In general, wooden coasters are nonlooping. They're also not as tall and not as fast, and they don't feature very steep hills or as long a track as steel ones do. Wooden coasters do offer one advantage over steel coasters, assuming you're looking for palm-sweating thrills: they sway a lot more. Tubular steel coasters allow more looping, higher and steeper hills, greater drops and rolls, and faster speeds.
