Alom - I'm sure you already know about the BBC's Class Clips resource,
but others may not - there are searchable short videos on various
subjects including science, and they are marked as suitable for various
age groups, with tips on how they could be used in the classroom

Best wishes

Hi all,
The Wellcome Trust's Big Picture series
(http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/bigpicture) is a free post-16 resource for
teachers that explores issues around biology and medicine. There is a
print version and an online version, the latter contains video and audio
files, games and animations. Some complement the print editions and
others are stand-alone. The latest Big Picture is on climate change and
health, and the next issue is due out in June.

Subject: [PSCI-COM] Web videos for teaching
Hello all,
I am a science teacher at a secondary school.
I am trying to compile a list of freely available web based videos that
could be used to help teach science at KS3 and KS4. I am looking for
short videos that could be used to teach particular aspects of the
curriculum, for example an animation of nuclear fission or an
explanation of why current is conserved in a circuit. Additionally, I am
looking for videos that could be used to initiate discussion or debate
around a KS3 / KS4 science topic. I'd be grateful for any links you can
send me.
If you are a science teacher, I'd like to talk to you about your
experiences of using the web to find videos for use in the classroom, so
please get in touch.
Thanks,
Alom Shaha
