My Take
Fantastic treasure trove of ideas, simulations and hands on activities applying STEM concepts. Provides background information., real life application, hand outs and extensions. Materials needed are low cost.
How I Use It
I use it to teach science in an inquiry and hands on science lab. The videos are a great quick introduction to the activities. The simulations allow for application of the concepts.
