  2. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    If the elements of the cylinder are perpendicular to the planes containing the bases, the cylinder is a right cylinder, otherwise it is called an oblique cylinder. If the bases are disks (regions whose boundary is a circle) the cylinder is called a circular cylinder. In some elementary treatments, a cylinder always means a circular cylinder. [2]

  3. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Many of these problems can be related to real-life packaging, storage and transportation issues. Each packing problem has a dual covering problem, which asks how many of the same objects are required to completely cover every region of the container, where objects are allowed to overlap. In a bin packing problem, people are given:

  4. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases. Thus, in a right circular cylinder, the generatrix and the height have the same measurements. [ 1 ] It is also less often called a cylinder of revolution, because it can be obtained by rotating a rectangle of sides r {\displaystyle r} and g {\displaystyle ...

  5. Realia (education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realia_(education)

    Realia are real objects such as specimens of plants or animals, and machines or tools, as they are known to exist or used in life situations. They can be useful in presenting a learning experience while improving the retention of concepts learned. The use of realia is commonplace in the classroom and is widely considered to have great value in ...

  6. Project-based learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project-based_learning

    Project-based learning is a teaching method that involves a dynamic classroom approach in which it is believed that students acquire a deeper knowledge through active exploration of real-world challenges and problems. [1]

  7. Instructional materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructional_materials

    3D model used for teaching geometry. Instructional materials, also known as teaching materials, learning materials, or teaching/learning materials (TLM), [1] are any collection of materials including animate and inanimate objects and human and non-human resources that a teacher may use in teaching and learning situations to help achieve desired learning objectives.

  8. Magnus effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_effect

    The topspinning cylinder "pulls" the airflow up and the air in turn pulls the cylinder down, as per Newton's Third Law. On a cylinder, the force due to rotation is an example of Kutta–Joukowski lift. It can be analysed in terms of the vortex produced by rotation.

  9. Problem-based learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem-based_learning

    Example of problem/project based learning versus reading cover to cover. The problem/ project-based learner may memorize a smaller amount of total information due to spending time searching for the optimal material across various sources, but will likely learn more useful items for real world scenarios, and will likely be better at knowing ...
