Rainbow Leaf Beetle--An Overview
This short video gives excellent real life, close up footage of a Rainbow Leaf Beetle. The rainbow leaf beetle is arguably one of the most beautiful beetles in Britain. Its common name refers to the longitudinal bands of green, purple and red on the wing cases or 'elytra'. Males are generally smaller and more slender than females. This is a great resource to help build background knowledge and to help make real world connections between nature and the classroom. (Less Than 2 Minutes)

L'islamisme aujourd'hui - Hamit Bozarslan (video)
Au tournant des années 1999-2000, un certain nombre d’ouvrages sont parus qui annonçaient la fin de l’islamisme. En France, l’un des plus marquants est celui de Gilles Kepel : Jihad, expansion et déclin de l’islamisme (2000). La thèse de l’impasse, voire de l’échec de l’Islam politique, avancée d’abord par Olivier Roy au début des années 1990, semble trouver alors sa confirmation. En effet, on assiste à ce moment précis à un essoufflement de l’islamisme qu
Lucy, la pionnière (audio)
A l’occasion du colloque « Les sciences dans les années 70 », Yves Coppens revient sur son activité de paléontologiste et sur les nombreuses campagnes de fouilles menées dès les années 1920 dans le cadre de la recherche sur les origines de l’homme. Il retrace en particulier les prémices et la découverte dans les années 70 de l’Australopithecus afarensis, la célèbre Lucy.

Science Bulletins: Kepler Discovers Dozens of Worlds
Kepler is the first NASA mission able to discover planets the size of Earth—and smaller—that are orbiting other stars. Kepler has discovered 11 solar systems and 26 planets, ranging from the size of Earth to larger than Jupiter. By searching for planets that lie within a star's habitable zone—in which a planet could maintain liquid water—the mission may locate terrestrial planets capable of supporting life.
Science Bulletins is a production of the National Center for Science Literacy, E

Signposts and Reading for Young Students
This 11 minute video introduces the principles that form the backbone of this collection about effective practices for engaging in literature. Dr. Judith Langer explains the most effective techniques she found in classrooms where students are active learners, building
and sharing their individual and richly involved understandings of works of literature — what she calls envisionments. These characteristics are shown in action through introductory visits to the classrooms of the eigh

Measuring wellbeing and sustainability - Anil Markandya
Professor Anil Markandya, from the Department of Economics & International Development, gives the Charter Day lecture in which he explores more sophisticated ways of measuring a country's wellbeing than just looking at GDP; these include assessing its ecological footprint, rating in the Corruption Perception Index and number of happy life years. Using these techniques, there are some surprising winners and losers.

Ask an Engineer
The engineer's primary role is to develop practical solutions to society's many and varied needs. As demonstrated in this video from the Sciencenter in Ithaca, New York, engineering work — which requires creativity, a knack for problem solving, and lots of training — is seldom boring and can be highly rewarding. For some engineers, the challenge may be to maintain clean and healthy water conditions for aquarium inhabitants. For others, the work they do may be isolated from public vie
