Dear Alom, Research Councils UK have produced a set of short (10 min) video podcasts around evolution topics, of which all bar one feature interviews with researchers. They can be found here: http://www.darwin.rcuk.ac.uk/203/all/1/Topics__Questions.aspx?topicID=29 4 http://www.darwin.rcuk.ac.uk/203/all/1/Topics__Questions.aspx?topicID=40 4 http://www.darwin.rcuk.ac.uk/203/all/1/Topics__Questions.aspx?topicID=45 6 http://www.darwin.rcuk.ac.uk/203/all/1/Topics__Questions.aspx?topicID=46 7 http://www.darwin.rcuk.ac.uk/203/all/1/Topics__Questions.aspx?topicID=37 7 Kind regards, Patrick Dr Patrick Middleton BBSRC Head of Public Engagement Tel: +44 (0)1793 413368 Fax: +44 (0)1793 413382 -----Original Message----- From: psci-com: on public engagement with science [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Alom Shaha Sent: 28 April 2009 15:46 To: [log in to unmask] 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 ********************************************************************** 1.
