"Teaching and assessment strategies are provided for encouraging students with learning disabilities to develop a better understanding of science concepts. "

"We believe a brilliant education should be free to everyone in the world. We make great maths videos and other learning resources. They are free to the world and always will be."

"NASA eClips™ are short, relevant educational video segments. These videos inspire and engage students, helping them see real world connections."

"NASA's Do-It-Yourself Podcast activity sets the stage for students to host a show that features astronauts doing experiments on the International Space Station or NASA experts explaining scientific concepts. NASA provides a set of audio and video clips along with links to images and information about a STEM-related topic."

"In 1687, Newton published a book with his explanation of how an object, or matter, moves. The book, entitled "Principia," is important to science because in it he explained three laws of motion and the Universal Law of Gravity. Newton's Laws of Motion describe the relationships between motion, matter and force. "

"International Space Station Expedition 16 Flight Engineer Dan Tani discusses and demonstrates Newton's laws. You can mix and mash these video clips with NASA images and your own narration, original video, special effects and transitions. Preview the video and download the clips you want to use in your own project."

"Aviation High School, part of Highline Public Schools but open to students across the region, has been in temporary locations since it opened in 2004. The new facility is being built in collaboration with The Museum of Flight. In addition, Aviation High School was the first college preparatory aviation-themed high school in the nation and is dedicated to becoming the premier school of choice for science, technology, engineering and math learning in the region."

"We'll travel to NASA's tool lab and see the equipment we need to build in this challenging environment, from high tech wrenches and hammers"

"In this activity you should use your knowledge of forces to explain how animals move! Remember that it is normally the reaction force on the body of an animal which gives rise to the resultant force. To obtain a reaction force, an action force must be applied in the opposite direction. There must be a resultant force on the body to change the velocity of the body. "

"The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010.

"The National Aeronautic Association has certified the July 13 record for the University of Maryland's human-powered helicopter called Gamera. It achieved liftoff and hovered for 11.4 seconds, setting U.S. records for flight duration and for flight duration by a female pilot. (Watch a video of the flight.). It was designed and built by graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Maryland's A. James Clark School of Engineering and piloted by biology student Judy Wexler. "

"The AOPA Airports application for iPhone and Pod touch, powered by ForeFlight, source of airport know-before-you-go information for any pilot. contains vital details on more than 5,300 public-use landing facilities, 7,000 FBOs and aviation-related businesses, and more than 55,000 restaurants, hotels, and "

"Taylor De Ley of Yorba Linda, Calif., may be only 17, but as he starts his college education this week he has already focused on a professional pilot career and completed a 10,492-nautical-mile solo flight to the four corners of the nation. That's more than most kids his age. He now has 340 total flying hours. He dedicated the flight to giving fellow teens who are "stuck playing video games" a taste of the flying adventure "

"surveillance drone. The nano air vehicles (NAVs), modeled after falling Maple leaf seeds, are designed to be super light weight and agile for vertical lift off, hovering, and navigation in tight spaces. "

""Flying his jet-propelled wing attached to his back, and steering only by movement of his body, Rossy launched from a helicopter at 8,000 feet into the breathtaking blue of the Grand Canyon sky," the release said. "Skimming the rockscape at speeds of up to 190 mph, Jetman sustained flight for more than eight minutes, 200 feet above the rim of Grand Canyon West."
