THE COMIC BOOK PROJECT
In this video, Meet Me at the Corner, Virtual Field Trips for Kids, takes you to New York City. Students learn about "The Comic Book Project" in an interview with Michel Bitz, founder of the Comic Book Project at Columbia University. Children learn about the history of comics and how to create their own comic book hero. There are also Links to fun websites, questions, and Extended Activities. (04:42)
Introduction to Conditional Probability
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, introduces conditional probability. He uses scores in a basketball game as an example. Mr. Khan uses the Paint Program (with different colors) to illustrate his points.
Probability (Part 7)--More on Conditional Probability
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, continues his discussion of conditional probability while touching on Bayes' Theorem. Mr. Khan uses the Paint Program (with different colors) to illustrate his points. Sal Khan is the recipient of the 2009 Microsoft Tech Award in Education.
Conditional Probability and Combinations
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, continues his discussion of probability of picking a fair coin that was flipped 4 heads out of 6 heads. Mr. Khan uses the Paint Program (with different colors) to illustrate his points. Sal Khan is the recipient of the 2009 Microsoft Tech Award in Education.

This expert, Matt Moskal, keeps it simple by drawing basic shapes to create clothing.
Probability: Finding What Percent an Event Has of Occurring
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, discusses how to find the probability that an event will occur. He uses an electronic chalkboard to demonstrate several examples using a step by step approach.
Probability -Flipping a Coin (Part 1)
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, uses an electronic chalkboard to demonstrate the possible combinations when flipping a coin. He uses a tree diagram to model several examples.

An object's pH level can be tested using indicators. Objects with low pH are acids, and those with high pH are bases. Acids and bases react to form water and salt. Learn more about acids and bases with this cartoon animation from StudyJams. A short, self-checking quiz is also included with this link.
Acids are sour. Substances are labeled as either acids or bases. Bases are slippery, and turns lithmus paper blue, acids turn lithmus paper to red. Hydrogen Ions contain one hydrogen ion, andhydroxide form one oxygen atom. The process is called neutralization. This six minute video helps explains this. It is a bit different than other videos so teachers need to preview it as it moves rapidly and may need to be stopped for a more complete classroom explanation. Has a test at the end.
See the step-by-step process of building a simple cardboard motor - with a nail, wire, cardboard, and magnets. Run time 07:44.
This small motor uses only a carefully shaped wire, a single AAA battery and neodymium magnets. See this amazing motor work - in this very brief video. Learning via observation - is known as learning via 'modeling'. No audio. Run time 0:20.
Find out what connects coils to electric outputs with information from a science teacher in this video. Information on how electric generators work by moving an alternating current to an output.
An electric motor works through two main elements, with the first
being opposing magnets and the second being a wire coil. Learn about
carbon brushes and commutators and how they help electric motors work with information from a science teacher in this video.
