Nelson Chemistry Resource Page


new The Bridge: is a unique clearinghouse of the best K-12 ocean sciences education sites available online. Educators can find information on almost any ocean science topic, links to aquariums and research institutions, ocean science research data, lesson plans, career information, and professional development opportunities.

new The Mining Company's Geography Site: Includes weekly articles about geography, annotated links to hundreds of the best sites for maps and geographical information, an online world atlas, a glossary, weekly quizzes, a bulletin board and chat room for those interested in geography, and much more. Contains over 800 pages.

newInteractive Physics and Math with Java: This site is so neat!!! It's very heavy on the Physics but who cares!! View controllable animations of the Laser, or Images formed by converging and diverging mirrors. Want a demonstration of Kirchhoff's rules? Get it here.

new The Microbe Zoo: Learn about microbes and microbial ecology. Check out the Animal Pavilion, Dirtland, the Snack Bar, and the Space Adventure. An interesting site!

newThe Galileo Project: The Galileo Project is a hypertext source of information on the life and work of Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) and the science of his time. The project is supported by the Office of the Vice President of Computing of Rice University.

newScience Resources: This is a web site for teachers to share ideas. Find lesson plans for Chemistry, Physics, Biology.

newThe Museum of Dirt: At the Museum of Dirt you can search for dirt using various options, including: color, texture, category, region, contents, and many others. You can also view celebrity dirt & other showcased dirt, or submit your own sample of dirt.

newGARBAGE: Designed for students, teachers, and anyone who regularly takes out the trash, Garbage demonstrates what actually happens to the solid waste and sewage produced by individuals and industries around the world. It is based on the PBS series Race to Save the Planet, funded by the Annenberg/CPB Projects, and linked to a week of ecological programming on the new, free Annenberg/CPB Channel.

Geography World: Links to everything from Plate Tectonics to Geography games. About the only stop you need to make.

American Museum of Natural History: A number of on line Scientific exploration are available at this museum's web site.

Al Bodzin's Home Page: Al's web page serves as a resource for K-12 educators, especially science educators. He is currently a recipient of a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship in Instructional Technology for Science Education at North Carolina State University. Al learned to incorporate technology into his biology teaching while a high school teacher in South Carolina. This is an exceptionally well-done page with links to Al's personal favorite sites (Nanoworld, Ocean Planet, & Classroom Connect) and to pages with selected links to a lot of "great sites" in biology, ecology, science, and K-12 education.

Aquatic Network: Subject areas covered include aquaculture, conservation, fisheries, limnology, marine science and oceanography, maritime heritage, ocean engineering, and seafood.

Biology Teachers Unplugged: Elliott Kimmels web-site for Biology teachers. Very interesting and worth a visit.

The BioChemNet: a directory of web resources for biology and chemistry teachers.

Cascades Volcano Observatory: This web site tells about the Real time data, photo archives, and more than enough information on the active volcano range. Also this site is a great stopping point for students and teachers looking for volcano data.

Canadian National Earthquake Hazard Program: The Canadian National Earthquake Hazard Program is an informative site that has been produced by the Canadian National Seismograph Network. It is here that you can find a tremendous amount of valuable and current information on earthquakes valuable to both science and social studies teachers (Note: the site can also be accessed in French). This site concentrates on Canadian earthquake activity but you can easily access information that has occurred around the world.
