Chemistry concepts reinforced with video productions

Part of MIT OpenCourseWare (http://ocw.mit.edu) course "Chemistry Lab Techniques", these labs were designed to give first year MIT students practical hands-on introduction to the basic techniques of experimental chemistry in a laboratory setting. Labs bring science concepts alive as students observe, practice, and experiment with problems. High school science teachers and advanced high school students will find these materials useful. The MIT site has additional related videos and readings.

Do you want to broaden your knowledge of science content and effective inquiry-based methodologies? Teachers' Domain offers over 1,500 media resources in science, engineering, and technology as well as standards-based professional development courses in Physical, Life, and Earth Sciences.

The NSTA Learning Center All web seminar participants use online tools that allow them to mark-up presenter's slides or share desktop applications in addition to engaging in chat with others online and answering poll questions What is media literacy in a 21st century classroom? The Internet provides a plethora of resources for students, but are they all credible? This interactive presentation from WGBH's Teachers' Domain will show you how to integrate media literacy into your earth and space science curriculum while introducing you to the free media resources of Teachers' Domain. This seminar is for educators of grades 5-12.

The Earth Exploration Toolbook is a collection of computer-based Earth science activities. Each activity, or chapter, introduces one or more data sets and an analysis tool that enables users to explore some aspect of the Earth system. Step-by-step instructions in each chapter walk users through an example-a case study in which they access data and use analysis tools to explore issues or concepts in Earth system science. In the course of completing a chapter, users produce and analyze maps, graphs, images, or other data products. The ultimate goal of each activity is to build user's skills and confidence so they can use data to conduct their own investigations of the Earth system.
