NOVA - Official Website Can Wind Turbines Make You Sick? Residents living in the shadows of wind turbines say the sound is making them sick. But so far the science isn't there. Sperm: 15 Crazy Things You Should Know - Sperm: 15 crazy things you should know - Pictures When it comes to sperm, people always seem to have an agenda. Some want to kill sperm cells.

Modern Art Movement Timeline This French painting movement began when avant-garde artists including Cézanne, Renoir, and Manet scandalized the art world after being refused admission to the official art salon. Turning away from the stress on clarity of form and realistic rendering, the French Impressionists had an interest in how visual perception was based in fleeting optical impressions. They sought new ways to capture light and movement, atmosphere, and weather. They loosened their brushwork and lightened their palettes to include pure, intense colors – especially in their landscapes.

Physics Simulations at The Physics Classroom Welcome to Physics Interactives! This section of our website features a collection of HTML5 interactive pages that allow a user to explore a physics concept. Some Interactives are simulations that allow a user to manipulate an environment and observe the effect of changes in variables upon the simulation. Other Interactives are skill building exercises in which a user practices a skill that is crucial to learning some aspect of physics. And still other Interactives provide game-like environments that require the user to use a physics concept to meet a challenge. Wallpaper Camera Wraps Around Any Surface What if you could wrap a camera around your car (or tank) for a 360-degree view or encircle a streetlight to boost security? You might even use it as wallpaper to check out what’s happening in the room next door. This idea may have taken a step closer with a new thin flexible sheet camera design by researchers at Columbia University. While they are still working on prototypes, they say they have overcome several obstacles that have tripped up previous efforts and hope to have a real camera soon. 11 Bizarre Sources For Alternative Energy

Read more The primary goal of Experimental Eye Research is to publish original research papers on all aspects of experimental biology of the eye and ocular tissues that seek to define the mechanisms of normal function and/or disease. Studies of ocular tissues that encompass the disciplines of cell biology, developmental biology, genetics, molecular biology, physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, immunology or microbiology are most welcomed. Manuscripts that are purely clinical or in a surgical area of ophthalmology are not appropriate for submission to Experimental Eye Research and if received will be returned without review.

ILLUSTRATED SEXUAL ANATOMY – A DIFFERENT VIEW. Sexual science, and even society today, views sex as a pleasurable activity. It is for many, and for many, not. Perhaps this is because we put the cart before the horse. 249 Bloom's Taxonomy Verbs For Critical Thinking Bloom’s Taxonomy’s verbs–also know as power verbs or thinking verbs–are extraordinarily powerful instructional planning tools. In fact, next to the concept of backwards-design and power standards, they are likely the most useful tool a teacher-as-learning-designer has access to. Why?

Another great classroom tool is CNN Student News. It sparks great discussions in the classroom! As a middle schooler, I think it is great! My teacher uses it in our Humanities class(social studies/English/ history). by emilybug Apr 25

I am glad you find it to be useful. I like being able to share helpful resources, and pearltrees makes that easier. by novemberrain2 Apr 23

Do you know of any sites that help build the core's next generation assessments? by dinaps Apr 23

I use Science Daily to find articles for students to explore in various ways. It is a great resources for incorporating common core standards for science. Finding science-related articles for 9th-grade readers can be difficult... this website helps! by kalebclyatt Apr 23
