sounds of nature across the globe

"To start creating a video on Loopster upload video clips, audio clips, and images to your Loopster account. If you don't have any sounds to use, Loopster has a small library that you can access. After your media is uploaded you drag and drop it to the Loopster track editor. There you can rearrange elements and adjust their play lengths. "

This is what it looks like and sounds like!!! Scenes from the Unquiet Library: Four Classes Researching, Learning, and Collaborating I'm always amazed by how beautifully classes co-exist in our learning space when we max out with four classes. I thought it would be fun this morning to capture a quick snapshot of what learning looks like at The Unquiet Library-moments like this are the happiest for me here in the library and validate the vision of a learning-centered library.

What it is: Physics Central is a fantastic website full of…you guessed it, physics! There are fantastic sections for students to explore science, activity books, experiments and activities. Students can learn more about physics in action (physics as found in the world around us), meet physicists, and learn about physics research. Physics Central will ignite a students curiosity in: sound, electricity and magnetism, force and motion, light and optics, material science, quantum mechanics, space and the universe, and thermodynamics and heat. My favorite find on Physics Central so far (I'm sure there will be many more favorites the longer I explore) is the Nikola Tesla and the Electric Fair section. Here, students will find a downloadable kit that includes a manual, comic book, and four related activities.
