A Quick Addition...

Hello again,

The earlier post led me to Fractus Learning where I discovered 7 of the Best Science Blogs for Students and Teachers.  Another large chunk of time is gone…. Here is a look at a few of the sites.  I was drawn to The Frog Blog,  originally because of the frog picture (media was mentioned above in 6 Tips for Quality Student Blogging). I value the global perspective presented on this site.  Unfortunately, The Frog Blog will not be continuing.  I think the past content is worth a look.  It contains information on many science topics and science education.  Hmmm, I can recall listening to The Naked Scientists a few years ago and integrating Podcast clips into science lessons. Having revisited, I think I may use some clips from there again in the future.  Students enjoy listening to the program and for educators it is an easy way to keep up with science content.  I highly recommend listening!  I was hoping Bad Science would give me some quick short attention getting pieces to use in the classroom.  It wasn't what I thought it would be.  If you are looking for bad science in medical or pharmaceutical areas, there is much to choose from there.  Be sure to review thoroughly, some of the language may be inappropriate for the classroom.

Enjoy,

Mrs. A
