It's a puzzle game for the Mac, Wii and PC where you build structures that behave differently depending on weather, the properties of the materials used, and the different forces that act on them. These are the dry topics covered in my (hated) high school physics class, but are presented here in an inituitive and scaffolded way... in a bizarre Tim Burton-esque universe.
Physics software and sharing site. Combination of art and science. 2D physics sandbox. Constructionist learning paradigm.
"Great links to Great Science Resources. For students, parents, teachers, scientists, engineers and mathematicians. More than 14,000 Science Resources sorted by Category, Subcategory, and Grade Level"
A collection of free science videos and lectures on topics including animals, astronomy, biology, chemistry, genetics, physics, technology, water life, and weather.
The complex and abstract nature of Science makes the subject difficult to understand. But complexity is not the only barrier to our understanding Science. The subject is made much more difficult by the presence of numerous misleading "Science Myths" which circulate in the popular culture, which are handed down from parents to children, and which have become so common and widespread that they appear widely in science textbooks and are taught as facts in grade school.
An archive presenting and documenting some important and original contributions made before 1976 by 20th century women.
Visionlearning Library is an award-winning collection of peer-reviewed learning modules written by professional educators and scientists. These modules provide text, interactive animations, glossary definitions, current news and research, scientist biographies and practice exercises to provide a rich and complete learning environment.
The Physics Education Technology (PhET) project at CU Boulder is an ongoing effort to provide an extensive suite of freely available simulations for teaching and learning physics and chemistry. The simulations are animated, interactive, and game-like environments in which students learn through exploration.
Excellent article about the research at Fermilab and upcoming research at Cern. =)
