Writing Sentences - 10th grade
As an educator, I would use this video for younger students, though the target audience for the slideshow is for 10th grade.This 58-slide video starts with a basic review of the different types of sentences. If you enlarge the screen, the black words on a white screen (in a large font), should be visible in a small classroom.
Plant Cell Motility and Laser Microsurgery of Cytoplasmic Strands
Plant cells are shaped by rigid cell walls. Osmotic forces press the plasma membrane tightly against these walls. The walls can be removed with enzymes. The remaining structures, the protoplasts, are now bordered by the plasma membrane. Since the shaping force of the wall is missing, isolated plant protoplasts are usually perfectly spherical in shape as a result of non-directional osmotic forces. Run time 04:19
Microanatomy of the Lungs
Presented here is the microanatomy of the lungs and its components. The video shows an animated lung while a narrator explains the various parts labeled on the screen. "Alveolar sacs are the terminal portions of the breathing tube system. Composed of up to thirty tiny air pouches, or alveoli, they provide a lung a total surface area of about 850 square feet for the exchange of gases. Terminal bronchioles carry air to and from alveolar sacs. Cells lining bronchiole walls bear cilia---minute ha

Issues in computer supported inquiry learning in science
Computer supported inquiry learning has become an important application of computers in education. Computers allow for providing resources for inquiry learning, such as simulations; built-in support for the processes of inquiry learning; support for collaborative learning scenarios as well as tools for modeling by learners. An overview of the main issues on research on computer supported inquiry learning is provided including issues such as assessing learning effects of computer support, gaming
C++ Console Lesson 19: Function Templates
More at http://xoax.net
This C++ video tutorial shows how to create and call function templates. Function templates are special functions that can operate with generic types. This allows us to create a function template whose functionality can be adapted to more than one type or class without repeating the entire code for each type.
Gulf Oil Spill Effects On Wildlife
'New reports are surfacing every day about the immediate impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on Gulf Coast wildlife, especially as the oil reaches the sensitive marshlands along the coast. But how will these communities be affected over time? Scientists currently know very little about how long it takes for the hydrocarbons and heavy metals in crude oil to work their way through marine food webs. To address this issue, California Academy of Sciences researcher Peter Roopnarine is working
Ocean Tides
Tides are the rise and fall of the ocean's surface. Learn more about ocean tides in this educational video from dizzo95. The video briefly explains the causes of the tides, types of tides, and how often a tide occurs. More videos about tides can be found under the category and subcategories of Astronomy/Solar System/Earth's Moon/ Moon and Earth's Tides. Run time 0:55.
Reading a Pictograph
A whiteboard presentation demonstrating three pictograph. The off-screen narrator describes how to read a single symbol pictograph and different types of two-symbol pictographs. Descriptions are clear.
Following Directions with Goofy
This animated video explains why directions are so important. It shows Goofy a variety of examples in which directions are important and explains what would happen if there weren't directions. Lots of real life examples of directions are given. Visual, spoken, and written directions are also described. Signs are an example of visual directions. Spoken directions include those from a teacher. Written directions include those used to help assemble items. T

Genetically Engineering the Avian Flu
This video segment adapted from NOVA scienceNOW examines the threat of a virus being spread from birds to humans, and then from humans to humans. It details the mechanisms viruses use to infect cells, and explores how mutations in a virus may change its virulence and how it can spread. It also looks at work being done with a re-created flu virus—from the deadly 1918 strain—that may help prevent future flu pandemics. Closed captioning included. Run time 05:08.
