Magnifying the Universe - 0 views

  •  
    This interactive infographic from Number Sleuth accurately illustrates the scale of over 100 items within the observable universe ranging from galaxies to insects, nebulae and stars to molecules and atoms. Numerous hot points along the zoom slider allow for direct access to planets, animals, the hydrogen atom and more. As you scroll, a handy dial spins to show you your present magnification level. While other sites have tried to magnify the universe, no one else has done so with real photographs and 3D renderings. To fully capture the awe of the vastly different sizes of the Pillars of Creation, Andromeda, the sun, elephants and HIV, you really need to see images, not just illustrations of these items. Stunningly enough, the Cat's Eye Nebula is surprising similar to coated vesicles, showing that even though the nebula is more than 40,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times larger, many things are similar in our universe.

Inquiry: The birth of a model « Shifting Phases - 0 views

  • I explained that we were building the model we’d be using to predict the behaviour of circuits for the  next two years, and that on tests, I would be evaluating whether they used their model in a well-reasoned way (“You’re going to grade us based on what we say??”  They were astounded).  I cautioned them against rejecting things too quickly, since they would need as much structure as they could get. 
  • After each presentation, we discuss it and voted on it.  For voting, they used the feedback flashcards I’d made in September.  Green means accept; red means reject; yellow means “I have a question or want something clarified”. 
  •  
    outstanding post describing a true inquiry based classroom in a college level electronics course. Students actively build model to explain the behavior they see in circuits.

Socks Before Shoes: Unraveling Cell Division - 0 views

  • Just as you make sure your socks are on before your shoes, cells make sure that their chromosomes are properly aligned before they divide. However, every time a cell divides, it runs the risk of generating cells with too few or too many chromosomes. These mistakes can cause Down Syndrome and play a role in the growth of cancers. In his Science Center Lecture Series presentation, professor Andrew Murray looks at a mysterious cellular process that may provide clues to understanding chromosomal abnormalities such as the higher incidence of children with Down Syndrome born to older women.

    Great lecture on how cell division works-specifically chromosomes are aligned before the cells divide.  Video is nicely broken up into parts.
