Coding For The Public Good: Front-End Website Design And Development, Devorah Kletenik
Open Educational Resources
This activity helps student design and develop a front-end of a website, from wireframes through HTML/CSS/Javascript. It includes design questions for students, including the invocation of Ben Schneiderman's eight golden rules for interface design.
Note: this activity assumes prior knowledge of web development. Since this activity is designed for an HCI course, with a focus on interface design, students are not expected to create a back-end for it. This activity can obviously be modified for a full-stack experience.

Accessibility Evaluation, Devorah Kletenik
Open Educational Resources
This activity guides students through the evaluation of a website that they have created to see if it is accessible for users with disabilities. Students will simulate a number of different disabilities (e.g. visual impairments, color blindness, auditory impairments, motor impairments) to see if their website is accessible; they will also use automated W3 and WAVE tools to evaluate their sites. Students will consider the needs of users with disabilities by creating a persona and scenario of a user with disabilities interacting with their site. Finally, students will write up recommendations to change their site and implement the changes.

Visual Literacy Lesson Plan: Color Photography, Ian Mcdermott
Open Educational Resources
This session focuses on building subject knowledge in photography and finding background information on an artist. The lesson begins with students closely examining a photograph, following the Visual Thinking Strategies model (https://vtshome.org/). Following the exercise, students are divided into groups and select a monograph on a photographer. As a group, they research the photographer using the book and other library resources (subscription databases) and open web resources (artist’s website, museum websites). The session ends with student groups giving 2-5 minute presentations on a photographer.
Universal Gravitation And Circular Motion, Xin Gao
Universal Gravitation And Circular Motion, Xin Gao
Open Educational Resources
This is designed to serve as a pre-lab. Students will be asked to watch videos linked to in the instructions before the lecture and complete a worksheet with thought- provoking questions guiding them to relating circular motion with the motion of a satellite or planet, and then think about what force is serving as the centripetal force for planets when they move around the sun. Students will also be prompted to think about whether or not there is really no gravity in space, so as to realize how misleading those terms, such as “weightless” or “zero gravity in space” are.

The Undergraduate Student’S Guide To Geometric Morphometrics, Erika Crispo
Open Educational Resources
Embarking on a new research endeavor can be a daunting task. User guides, books, and published articles are written for an audience that already has some background experience in the field. Undergraduate students like you, who are at the very beginning of their research careers, often struggle to make sense of these documents. Furthermore, students like you often attempt to do so while balancing heavy course loads. Thus, I have written this document to help ease the burden so that you have more time to ponder the interesting scientific questions instead of digging through pages upon pages of documentation. I …
