Organized resources for addressing gender stereotypes in Science.

Funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation (link: www.nsf.gov), SciTrain works to help high school science and mathematics teachers provide the highest quality education to students with disabilities. The project includes research, instruction for teachers on how to make their coursework, classrooms and labs more accessible, and information resources for teachers including assistive technology for their courses."

This site offers a bullet point list of science safety tips broken down into different areas of technology.

This offers a parent section as well as an educator section. It also has "age and stage" internet advice that I thought really was common sense.

This site offers good resources for teachers, students, and parents about internet safety. I like the situation cards it gives as a resource for middle and high schools.

Animoto kicks your slide show up a notch. I think that combining animoto, prezi, and youtube can really make presentations much more interesting- by teachers and students!

This "game" allows kids to participate in a science mission lead by scientists. They investigate if and why there is an increase in the shark population in an area. Information is incorporated in the game using online resources and video. They actually have to count the sharks in the area- so they have to go through stages in the scientific method. I think students will love this.

This is a great resource for Astronomy or Earth Science. Students have access to podcasts, NASA news, pictures from the Hubble Telescope, and activities.

This site focuses on answering questions posed by kids. Resources are included for all of the core subjects.

This is a National Geographic site that offers many student-centered lessons on geology, ecology, energy, and weather. It also has classroom organizational tools. lesson plan builder, lesson plans, and interactive games.

I like this because it gives you a tutorial of what types of information works best for certain types of graphs. Then, your students can build their own graphs. You can easily take your lessons on graphing from being teacher-centered to student-centered.

This is a site that I have used for years. There are many lesson plans, resources, and ideas for middle school science teachers. It even has a free alphabetical science term border for your classroom.

University of Colorado at Boulder- Great simulations. This site also comes with lesson plans that other teachers have created for use with the simulations. You can click on the subject and get the thumbnails to view

A large collection of reference resources organized into categories. There are animations, calculators, data bases, readable science journals (in Frank Potter's resources), and even college level video lecture series in Physics- just in case you didn't get enough of it in high school.
