Rovio, the company behind Angry Birds, is partnering with the Centre Europeen de Recherche Nucleaire (CERN) to develop games, books and activities for kids in order to get an understanding of quantum mechanics.
Is there chemistry in the kitchen? Is there physics at the park? Videos and interactives will help students discover the real-world science around them and make connections to what they are learning in school. There is something for everyone!
is recently supposed an important issue in our daily affairs. Physical education should be started from childhood education period. Body movement and gaming is the child's familliar works. He feels a huge amusement by gaming and running freedomly. He engages in gaming when he gets a few free moments.
Discovery Education and 3M have partnered to bring the science of everyday life into your classroom. This fantastic collection of resources is for students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. On the site you will find videos and interactives that help kids learn about the science around them and make connections to what they are learning in school. Lessons are inquiry based and encourage exploration in life science, physical science, earth science and technology/innovation. Virtual labs are interactive flash-based labs where students can discover more about science like wind energy. At the Innovation HQ portion of the site, students can travel through time and look at innovations that they use in their every day life and "meet" 3M scientists. On the Student page, students can see a young inventors hall of fame.
An audio editor useful not only to music teachers but also to physics teachers: visualizing sound waves is a treat when explaining amplitude and frequency, among other topics...
"ust about a year ago I predicted that 2011 would be the year of the QR Code. That we would see these little squares popping up everywhere especially in America as smartphone sells continue to climb.
Looking back over the past year I've given quiet a few talks on QR Codes their power and scenarios for best us. When used propertly QR Codes can add value. When not used propertly they're just wasting space.
QR Codes should be used to connect
something in the physical world
to something in the virtual world."
