    Wondering how those who play the game to learn science concepts feel about  science.  Science has often been associated with negative feelings, especially for girls, - does learning with a game change that?

    The purpose of this site is to create checklists for multimedia projects, oral presentations, written reports, and science projects. The checklists allow students to stay on track and take responsibility for their learning. This site has templates for writing, multimedia, science, and oral presentations. The site allows users to create their own items or use items the website provides for checklists. Each page has specific instructions and allows for the user to save their created checklist. It is a very user friendly site for simple creation of a variety of checklists.

    The Kerpoof website is owned and operated by the Walt Disney Company. What is Kerpoof? The answer to that is not so simple. Kerpoof is all about having fun, discovering things, and being creative. Teachers and students can use Kerpoof to make artwork, make an animated movie, students can earn Koins which you can trade for fun things in a store, make a printed card, t-shirt, or mug, tell a story, and make a drawing. Kerpoof has free lesson plans for a variety of disciplines, from math and science to social studies and foreign languages available for download. Educators can register students and arrange them into classes. Students may chat with each other, post creations on a class message board (moderated by the teacher), and collaborate on a project in real-time from different computers. State and National Standards are cross-referenced with Kerpoof they can be used to meet. Kerpoof also publishes a free electronic newsletter that highlights new features, lesson plans, and ideas for using Kerpoof in the classroom.

    The Study Island program is specifically designed to help students master the Tennessee Curriculum Standards. Study Island's focus on the required standards enables students to improve their performance in all standard skill areas, which results in increased proficiency and leads to improved test scores for Math, Reading/Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies. Students can use Study Island from any computer with internet access. This will help students prepare for TCAP (Tennessee's state assessment) as well as for next year's learning. Blue ribbons show mastery in the Subject Areas and Topic Areas assessed on TCAP. As students advance through the objectives, they can use games or test mode to complete tasks and achieve blue ribbons. I have seen this learner centered program really boost student learning in science and social studies, subjects I feel are often left to cram in at the end of the day. It appeals to students at various grade and learning levels. It is repetitive and gives direct instruction for areas of need.

    PhET Interactive Simulations (http://phet.colorado.edu/) allow students to see and practice complex science concepts that they are working on in class and see them actually performed. These simulations offer students the opportunity to try things out in a simulation before constructing their own machines. It allows teachers to show students advanced concepts and principles that they may not have the lab equipment to do in class. Students are able to manipulate the variables to see what happens so that physics is more than a series of equations. Mayer (2009) would see this as a knowledge construction becuase students are able to go in and manipulate the variables in their own way so that they given any circumstances they can see what happens. They are able to construct their own knowledge based on the parameters they put into the simulations so they can see what would happen when they apply more force or increase the mass of an object, they can then use that information to help them determine if their calculations make sense.

    This Web site contains articles and videos to demonstrate the usage of the iPad in K-2nd grade, as well as in Science and Art classes. Additionally, there are an array of apps listed that students could use to assist them in learning the necessary content. Some of the apps listed are free, while others are very expensive (less than $5.00). The apps make for a learner centered approach to learning, as the information can be as simple or as complex as needed to reach an array of learners. Because of this, the active engagement required focuses on cognitive activity.

    This will be a 5-hour hands-on workshop for a professional conference to look at digital e-textile creating to develop collaboration, decision making, and social change learning skills. The delivery will incorporate a multimedia approach to learning based on the 12 design principles developed by Dr. Richard Mayer. Topic Digital e-textile creating connects STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) curricula through an art. Learner engagement/motivation is driven by individual customization of technology through personalization of fashion.

    These sites contain basic information on the science, and the debate about the science. They also reference valuable information for the thinking environmental instructor while teaching.
