    What a great resource! Unfortunately, I don't think many high school students would enjoy this too much haha, but I appreciate it none the less. I've found that I have always struggled with creating things like the web site for young children so having this resource will only make it easier in the future to base any projects I have on it.

    I forgot to mention that there is another site called www.brainpop.com , which covers more in depth topics. If you go to http://www.brainpop.com/educators/state_standards/ the site says it addresses SOLs up to 12th grade. This is not my area of expertise, but it might be worth a look.

    After I wrote the comment, I saw the brainpop.com site and was impressed with it none the less.

    I like Brainpop for starting conversation in my AP classes.

Technology for Math, Science & Engineering - 1 views

  •  
    Thinkport is a product used in Maryland to help integrate technology in the classroom. The specific link that I am attaching is simulations of a multitude of subjects that could be incorporated into any lecture or free time that the student has. The topics covered vary from mathematics, an interactive art museum, anatomy, construction of different satellites, to literacy skills. It's goal is to increase technology use in the classroom regardless of the subject matter.

    Have used this for years! A resource for my Epidemiology enrichment course in conjunction with Johns Hopkins.

    This interactive site provides links to THE NROC Project, Phoenix college, KHAN Academy, PhET, and STEM bite. The resources use digital media that incorporates lessons for science and math. Students are able to learn concepts and apply the skills needed to show their understanding of these concepts. Students are given assessments on this site that check for understanding.

    I've heard of this site but never used it before. Seems to be very useful, especially for math help.
