BioDigital Human - 3D Platform for Understanding Anatomy and Physiology
One of the services that Google shut down as part of their Labs closure was the Google Body Browser. It was a good site for anatomy and physiology students. Fortunately, there are some other sites that do the same things that the Body Browser did. One such alternative that I previously reviewed is Healthline's Body Maps models . Another alternative that I recently learned about from Danny Nicholson is BioDigital Human .
Educational Technology and Mobile Learning: 11 Free Tools to Teach Human Anatomy in 3D
Finding free interactive resources to teach about the human body is not an easy task. I have received several emails from some teachers asking for websites they can use to teach about the human body parts and its anatomy. I am sorry that I am late a little bit but I have been really really busy . The following links below are what you will need to share with your students and let them enjoy the huamn body through interactive imaging, games, exercises and more. Enjoy. Build-a Body:

QR coded Periodic Table of Elements published in Journal of Chemical Education
Last year, if you remember, I wrote about a great tool and example of how QR codes are being used in science education . The QR coded audio Periodic Table of Elements (as seen below) has QR codes for each of the elements in the periodic table. If you click on the image, then you can get to the high resolution full-sized version and scan some of the QR codes. It’s pretty fun to see what happens. I am very pleased to learn, though, that this QR-coded audio Periodic Table of the Elements was recently published in the Journal of Chemical Education at http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ed200541e , which is great news.
Best Science Visualization Videos of 2009
Some of the most impressive images in science are produced when researchers take numerical data and represent it visually through modeling and computer graphics. The Department of Energy honored 10 of this year’s best scientific visualizations with its annual SciDAC Vis Night awards, at the Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing conference (SciDAC) in June. Researchers submitted visualizations to the contest, and program participants voted on the best of the best.

100 Free Online Lectures that Will Make You a Better Teacher Great teachers know that learning doesn’t stop as soon as you graduate from college . Teachers learn from their experience, from their colleagues, from their students, and any number of other resources. If you are a teacher looking for ways to expand your knowledge base, here are 100 free lectures you can watch to help facilitate some of that learning. Creative Learning Environments
Technology Tip Number 55 Leveraging Discipline Based Articulation Like any profession education has developed a long list of terms and phrases that uniquely describe what teachers do and how they do it. This collection of educational jargon is loosely referred to as “Eduspeak” and understanding it can be very difficult for the public at large. Below I have listed some websites that purport to offer glossaries of "Eduspeak" terms to assist the public. Educators deal with the public and specifically parents. They need to remember that their language, like that of a lawyer or doctor, isn't always clear to outsiders.

Bricolage, ruse et subterfuge
La pédagogie instrumentée par le numérique essaime dans la sphère de l'apprentissage et de l'enseignement. L'abondance des communications institutionnelles, universitaires et des usages de terrain est un indicateur de ce foisonnement. essaimer ne signifie pas pour autant stabilisé ou généralisé. Nous sommes entrés, depuis quelques années, dans une phase de diffusion des équipements dans les établissements via les efforts conjugués du ministère et des collectivités locales. L'enquête PROFETIC (prof et TICE) de septembre 2011 (1) montre que 79 % des enseignants disposent facilement d'un ordinateur dans l'établissement, 66 % d'un vidéo projecteur et 59 % d'un ordinateur pour les élèves et tous les enseignants ont un ordinateur à domicile.Supraconductivité, design et lévitation : une interview de Julien Bobroff
Cent ans après la découverte de la supraconductivité par le Hollandais Heike Kamerlingh Onnes, des étudiants en design et des physiciens se sont réunis autour du phénomène de la lévitation supraconductrice. Résultat : un étonnant site et une exposition, baptisés SupraDesign . Venez la découvrir avec Julien Bobroff, professeur à l'université Paris Sud et responsable au CNRS de l'organisation de l'Année de la supraconductivité 2011. Le 8 avril 1911, le Hollandais Heike Kamerlingh Onnes mesurait avec son assistant Gilles Holst la résistance électrique du mercure refroidi par de l’ hélium liquide. Ce jour-là, ils découvrent la supraconductivité en observant qu'à 4,2 kelvins la résistivité du mercure est nulle. Le phénomène va passionner des générations entières de chercheurs et des théoriciens de premier calibre s’attaqueront à sa compréhension comme Lev Landau et Richard Feynman .Deux journées scientifiques dont le thème était “ La pédagogie universitaire à l’heure du numérique - Questionnement et éclairages de la recherche” viennent de se terminer. Elles se sont déroulées à l’INRP de Lyon les 6 et 7 janvier 2011. La feuille de présentation des journées indique que 95 % des étudiants disposent d’un accès à leur environnement numérique de travail et à des ressources en ligne (vidéos, cours complets, exercices et auto-évaluations, animations, simulations …)
