Evaluating Polynomials Using Synthetic Division - Problem 1 of 2
This video is a continuation and presents an example that demonstrates how to use synthetic division to evaluate a polynomial function. (4:30)
Science off the Sphere: Knitting Needle Experiment
International Space Station Expedition 30 astronaut Don Pettit uses knitting needles and water droplets to demonstrate physics in space for 'Science off the Sphere.' Through a partnership between NASA and the American Physical Society you can participate in Pettit's physics challenge and view future experiments here: http://www.physicscentral.com/sots
Combined Gas Law Demonstration
This video introduces an apparatus that can be used to show the mathematical relationship between volume, pressure, and temperature in the combined gas law. It is done in a way that introduces the apparatus to the teacher, but it could still be used in the classroom to introduce it to the students. It does not go into much major detail about the gas law itself, or the math involved, but it is an interesting device that might keep students interested in the topic. This video is a pub for th
Charles Law Lecture and Demonstration
Charles Law states that the volume of a given mass of a gas is directly proportional to its Kevin temperature at constant pressure. This video explains one of the gas laws, Charles' Law, and runs through the math needed to solve a problem using Charles' Law. It is in lecture form, with a teacher at whiteboard, but the demonstration afterwards is very interesting. The demonstration shows how Charles' Law works by using a bowl of water, a candle, and a glass. (5:04)
Lecture and Demonstration of Boyle's Law
Boyle’s Law states that volume of a given amount of gas held at a constant temperature varies inversely the with pressure. This video shows a teacher lecturing, at a whiteboard, about one of the gas laws, Boyle's Law. The lecture explains the concept of Boyle's Law, as well as works through a math problem using Boyle's law. (4:32)
Scarlet and Mammy-Hattie McDaniel and Margaret Mitchell
This clip from Gone with the Wind gives you a glimpse of the role Hattie McDaniel played in most of her movies. This is a great resource to help build background knowledge and to help build real world connections between the classroom and the History of African Americans in the United States. (2:30)
The Elegance of Baroque Dance
This 3:43 video offers a quick overview of the different dances of this genre. It is part of a DVD offering. It has narration and is well done.
"The Loving Game" by Vernon Scannell (poetry reading)
Vernon Scannell is one of my heroes, there are many similarities in our lives. In case you didn't notice and because times have changed, the word "ring" at the end refers to courtship - which in those days involved an engagement ring. To put it crudely, a girl wouldn't "put out" unless she had a ring on her finger.
Fashion in the 50's was the Edwardian Style - better known as the Teddy Boy - but later influenced by the American Zoot suit, jackets were getting longer. On a tall man a "fing
Career Refreshment
This 14 minute video explores a number of different career
refreshment opportunities as three teachers discuss the breaks they took from their day-to-day roles. This is a British video, but the ideas are valid for teachers most everywhere.

Multiplying Polynomials
This is a teacher-made video explaining how to multiply polynomials. She gives two examples. The teacher can be heard narrating to the classroom, with the classroom responding, while the screen shows her working on a piece of lined paper. The teacher's voice appears loud during times. You may want to adjust the volume. (10:45)
"The Owl" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson (poetry reading)
In some versions the fourth line in each stanza is repeated. I find it easier to read this version. Some echo has been added to the sound track.
When cats run home and light is come,
And dew is cold upon the ground,
And the far-off stream is dumb,
And the whirring sail goes round,
Alone and warming his five wits,
The white owl in the belfry sits.
When merry milkmaids click the latch,
And rarely smells the new-mown hay,
And the cock hath sung beneath the thatch
Twice or thrice his roundelay
Science Bulletins: Tapping In—The Promise of Brain-Computer Interface
For decades, neuroscientists have sought to use electronics to communicate with the brain. Computing and surgical technique have now become sophisticated enough to implant devices directly into neural tissue. In this feature, researchers at Albany Medical Center and the Wadsworth Center at the New York State Department of Health reveal a world where mind and machine merge. Their cutting-edge devices translate brain signals into action, helping people with ALS and other disabilities regain the ab
