Essential Physics is a new high school physics curriculum that combines a fresh, energy-oriented treatment of physics with a strong pre-engineering and technology focus. The Essential Physics curriculum includes a brand new text that meets all existing physics standards—in both a printed book and an exceptional electronic book. A wide range of interactive simulations, animations, video, and interactive equations are integrated directly into the e-Book. The program also contains a custom-designed set of laboratory apparatus that work with our exceptional e-Book technology - including our ErgoBot. For more information see Essential Physics |

Hands On Equipment |

Students engage when they actually do science. The curriculum must turn their actions and observations into understanding. This interaction works best when the equipment and curriculum are designed together so each complements the other. This is especially true when technology is involved. Ergopedia creates high-quality, accurate, and rugged equipment for hands-on learning. Our equipment is technologically sophisticated, yet easy to use and maintain. For more details see Equipment. |

A Natural Approach to Chemistry is a complete, inquiry-based learning system including a textbook, laboratory investigations manual, teacher's guide, and a full complement of innovative lab equipment designed by Ergopedia. The Lab-Master™ integrates probes, a test-tube heater that can boil 20 mL of water in two minutes, and an easy-to-use RGB spectrophotometer in a rugged, spill-resistant instrument. Published by LAB-AIDS®, A Natural Approach to Chemistry already has been adopted by several states (including Delaware, Illinois, and Florida), as well as large and small urban districts such as Pittsburgh, PA and Springfield, MA. For more information see Chemistry. |
