GREAT resource! pdboyer Fri, 24 Sep 2010 00:45:47 GMT http://scratch.mit.edu/ Scratch is a graphical programming environment that makes it easier for kids (ages 8 and up) to create their own interactive stories, games, animations, and simulations -- and share their creations with one another online. To create programs in Scratch, kids snap together graphical programming blocks, much like LEGO bricks or puzzle pieces. As kids create and share Scratch projects, they learn important mathematical and computational concepts, while also learning to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. pdboyer Sun, 28 Nov 2010 20:39:57 GMT http://esseacourses.strategies.org/private/learner.course.php?course_id=265&action=pedagogy ESSEA Problem Based Learning course.

From Annenberg pdboyer Sun, 23 May 2010 18:20:12 GMT http://www.udel.edu/biology/ketcham/microscope/scope.html GREAT resource for students who missed the day of the wet lab. Offers views of several different samples and is very nearly as good as sitting at the microscope, including the difficulty of moving the sample under high power! Use it for kids who miss the wet lab or as a substitute for those who can't handle the real scope. pdboyer Tue, 12 Jan 2010 01:43:00 GMT
