"A new science curriculum unit from The JASON Project enables students to explore one of society's most important issues -- energy --in a new distribution format featuring print-on-demand and other solutions for 21st-century classrooms. "Operation: Infinite Potential" is the third unit in JASON's new line of science curricula, following units on ecology and weather. Each unit fully integrates digital and print content in an inquiry-based approach to instruction. Using research articles, hands-on labs, field assignments, videos, computer games, and other multimedia, students work with leading scientists to investigate and analyze emerging technologies designed to meet the needs of an energy-hungry planet. And for the first time, JASON is allowing free downloading and printing of all online Student and Teacher Editions in the new curriculum."

Earth Systems Curriculum with Hands-On Teaching One fan of this curriculum comments that "these activities bring the abstract into the more tangible realm, while teaching good earth science. I can't wait to try these lessons in my classroom!" This multi-unit curriculum is meant for students who have already progressed through some earth science classes, and there are many lessons and activities within the collection that can be pulled out and used separately from the curriculum as a whole.

"NASA Images" is a service of the Internet Archive, a nonprofit digital library. It was created under a Space Act agreement to offer unprecedented access to NASA media (including images, video, and audio), functioning as a free online library for all of NASA's multimedia content. Users can search for material by keyword or theme (such as Earth, Astronauts, Solar System, or Universe), or they can browse through several featured collections. The site is constantly growing with the addition of current media from NASA, as well as newly digitized media from the archives of the NASA Centers.
