Really cool look at various phenomena. Watch as it develops, speed it up, slow it down, zoom in or out...

Very exciting - Wolfram organized by Common Core Standards. Science Standards to come shortly. Wolfram Education Portal, organized by course. In the portal you'll find a dynamic textbook, lesson plans, widgets, interactive Demonstrations, and more built by Wolfram education experts. You can take a look at the types of materials we offer below, but to get full access to all materials, you need to sign up for a free account.

NOAA recently released a collection of more than 7,000 historical U.S. shoreline topographic images for viewing in Google Earth. NOAA's Historical Shoreline Survey Viewer could be used to show students how coastlines have changed over time. 

This is going to be an amazing tool! Use engaging videos to create customized lessons. You can use, tweak, or completely redo any lesson featured on TED-Ed, or create lessons from scratch based on any video from YouTube. Watch the video to learn how.

New to Wolfram is that you can now embed various demonstrations from their website.  To the right of this example is a line of code that you copy by placing your cursor inside the text box.  Copy (cmd + C) and paste the HTML code onto your site.   If you would like a demonstration of this please contact one of your TIF's for an explanation.

Free educational simulations covering a diverse topics designed by the University of Colorado available in various languages. This is a really great site to use for science resources. Teachers have also developed and posted lesson plans for each simulation.

Interactive Science Simulations Fun, interactive, research-based simulations of physical phenomena from the PhET project at the University of Colorado.

Google is looking for the brightest young scientists from around the world to submit interesting, creative projects that are relevant to the world today.

We are one step closer to achieving my personal dream of owning a hoverboard from "Back to the Future 2" This is groundbreaking.  Quantum superconductors locked in a magnetic field.

this site seems to have a LOT of resources; Game based learning, tech integration, labs, etc, specifically for the sciences.  

Super impressive 3D human anatomy program that helps students understand the various systems.

Hey I was just on hippocampus today and they have redesigned the website to include Khan Academy and Phets. The layout is also much more user-friendly. It is a really great resource for students. It has videos, simulations, lectures, and interactive problem solving for a variety of subjects.

The Quest Learning and Assessment System uses an extensive knowledge bank of over 60,000 questions and answers covering Math, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Physical Science and Physics.

Hi Science Teachers, Check out this AP Science teacher who records his lectures in Youtube for his students in what we consider a "Flipped classroom"

cool virtual microscope link for the cells unit.
