Science news and science jobs from New Scientist - New Scientist. National Geographic - Inspiring People to Care About the Planet Since 1888. 100 Incredible Science Lectures For The Flipped Classroom. Open source, for both the classroom and the self-educator, proves an absolutely swoon-worthy digital ocean of information.
Unsurprisingly, the sciences thrive in such a climate, with the Internet positively flooded with panels, lectures, Q&As, talks, complete and incomplete classes, demonstrations, and other conduits through which education flows. Our 2009 listing featured some of the best around, but it didn’t even scratch the surface of available content. Adding an additional 100 on top of that won’t, either! All the same, though, that doesn’t mean we’ll stop showcasing some great viewing, reading, and listening from the most impassioned researchers! When moving forward, please keep in mind that none of these lectures are to be considered ranked, and many require flipping forward to other videos. Because science and engineering so often build upon and influence one another, understanding their codependent relationship leads to a greater appreciation for and comprehension of both.
New Classrooms Can Change Children's Brains. Children come to school with different aptitudes, many of which determine their ability to learn.
Some are quicker at grasping the concepts and skills that form the core of most educational curricula. Others are better able to concentrate or make friends. Some seem lazy; others determined. As a result, we label children as smart, attentive, social and hardworking—or as slow, distracted, shy and lackadaisical. The labels suggest fixed traits, not teachable skills. In recent years, however, researchers have begun to parse the basic brain functions that form the foundation for many of the qualities and abilities necessary to succeed in school—and in later life.
