Watch Technology and Drama - Teaching with glove puppets | K-12 Online Conference Episo... - 1 views

  •  
    "A junior science class demonstrates a lesson about multicelular organisms using glove puppets with a constructivist approach to problem solving and a blended learning model. This activity has even been adapted by the teacher Roland Gesthuizen to help explore complex topics including technology issues such as cyberbullying, privacy, programming, copyright, freedom and ethical behaviour whilst improving their literacy and social skills. This is a very engaging way to quickly assess student understanding using some simple technology and computer skills without the need for sophisticated digital equipment."

Human Brain Project - Home - 6 views

  •  
    "Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain diseases and build revolutionary new computing technologies. Modern computing technology has brought these goals within sight. ICT is ready to give us a completely new understanding of the brain and its diseases; understanding the brain will lead inevitably to radical innovation in computing."

STEM across the school - 0 views

  •  
    "The importance of offering a broad curriculum within the school system cannot be over-stated, allowing students to explore a range of topics that spark their interest, and potentially inspire them to follow a career path that can have a positive impact on their lives, society and the environment. STEM activities (built around Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) offer a broad range of opportunities, opening up the potential of enquiry based learning that is relevant to the world we live in. Many education systems globally place a great emphasis on a STEM curriculum for all students, no matter of age, race, gender or ability, but what STEM based activities work best in your setting, helping students see the world differently, and potentially inspiring to enter STEM careers of the future?"

What Will Humans Look Like in 100,000 Years? - 7 views

  •  
    "Pittsburgh-based visual artist Nickolay Lamm, who blogs at UK discount site MyVoucherCodes.co.uk, worked with a computational geneticist to illustrate three ways that humans' physical appearances might change to better suit their environments over the next 100,000 years. However, many of these assumptions don't rely on evolution, but rather zygotic genome engineering technology. Scientists in the future might be able to manipulate human features prior to birth."

Mars rover's dirty secret - 0 views

    "I'm as happy as anyone that the Curiosity rover got to Mars; it's hard not to barrack for all those NASA geeks in their blue polo shirts. But before you get all apple pie about the achievement, there's something you should know: Curiosity runs on plutonium from a Soviet-era nuclear weapons plant."

Top scientist calls for change to get students interested in science and maths - ABC Ne... - 3 views

  •  
    "No matter how you are reading this story, you can thank science. Whether it is the transmission of data over the internet or just the pixels on the screen, a combination of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) is delivering it. The problem is that in Australia, the number of students taking science and mathematics subjects is dwindling - and has been for decades."
