SEFM World Sunlight Map Watch the sun rise and set all over the world on this real-time, computer-generated illustration of the earth's patterns of sunlight and darkness. The clouds are updated daily with current weather satellite imagery. The Mercator projection used here is one way of looking at the spherical earth as a flat map. Used since the 16th century for navigation, straight lines on this map can be used accurately as compass bearings but the size and shape of continents are distorted. Compare this with Peters, Mollweide or equirectangular projection maps. Also available is a semi-realistic view of dawn and dusk from far above the Earth, a look at the moon, and information about how this works.

Fears, Rules, Words, Questions « Teaching Science A quick lesson description here; I’ve been far too focused on political stuff recently. I thought I’d blogged this before, but apparently not. (And while I’m reviewing – 120 posts. Yeah, really.) Anyway. It’s the time of year, after summative exams for our KS3 classes, that we teach Reproduction to year 7. Stop giggling at the back there! This is my approach to starting off what can be a challenging topic. Fears “What might make a student nervous about this topic?” Rules I remind the students of the rules we have agreed and followed all year. Words I write ‘F***’ on the board, with asterisks, and explain over the gasps and giggles that we all know which word this is. I then circle the ‘polite’ words and explain that we can consider these as ‘classroom English’. Important: clean the board very thoroughly. :) Questions I give each student a piece of paper and ask them to spread out, as if doing a test. Comments? Like this: Like Loading...
