The learner will gain an understanding of the modes of axis movement for successful robot programming.

In this animated object, the learner examines 17 types of joint movement.

The learner will view videos showing the movements of each axis of the six-axis robot.

In this animated object, learners consider how nanoscientists are mimicking intracellular movements when building nanobots.

In this interactive learning object, learners read how to compensate for a part not mounted perfectly parallel to the machine axis.

Learners study the muscles of the scapula and check their knowledge on each page by identifying the muscles on diagrams and answering a related question about movement.

In this learning activity you'll review rigging and lifting as well as signals for crane movement.

In this animated and interactive object, learners examine the basic parts and the linear movement of a hydraulic cylinder. A brief quiz completes the activity.

In this animated activity, learners study how a PLC performs a shift operation. The learning object covers data movement, data entry, PLC wiring, PLC shift register introductions, and programming for a paint can operation.

In this learning object the student will learn how to measure a stain and calculate angles of impact. Determining the angle of impact for bloodstains takes advantage of the trigonometric functions (Sine function).

A mathematical relationship exists between the width and length of an elliptical bloodstain which allows for the calculation of the angle of the impact for the original spherical drop of blood.

Given well formed stains we can accurately measure the width and length by simply dividing the stain along it’s major and minor axis. The opposite halves would be generally equal to each other which aids in establishing the impact angle.

In this screencast, learners examine the movement of fluid within the vascular system.

Learners examine an animated motion-controlled robotic arm and observe the operation of a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control that makes movements quickly without overshooting or having a steady-state error. This activity has audio content.

In this animated object, learners examine the different types of joints and their movements.

Learners conduct an experiment to illustrate how a greater number of particles in a "vessel" increases osmotic pressure.

In this learning activity you'll analyze line graphs and answer questions about the information shown.

In this animated object, learners view molecules as they collide and move between two different solutions. They also observe what happens when the temperature of the solutions is raised or lowered.

Learners read an explanation of line graphs and demonstrate their knowledge of the parts of a graph in an interactive exercise.

Students view the parts and movements of a combustion engine in this animated activity. Each part is described.
