Chemistry teachers, have you ever tried teaching chemistry with film?

Our free curriculum guide for National Geographic docuseries One Strange Rock, about the history of Earth from a planetary perspective, includes three lessons that are great for chemistry classes:

- Lesson 4: Mighty Microbes (Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry)
- Lesson 5: The History of Life (History, Geology, Biology, Chemistry)
- Lesson 8: The Air We Breathe (Chemistry, Biology, Earth Science, Social Studies)

If you'd like to boost student engagement in STEM classes with film — and/or give yourself an easy teaching day — we warmly recommend this resource to STEM teachers.

PS As you can see, the lessons span the STEM curriculum. Share this with your science teacher colleagues!

In developing AIs (artificial intelligences) there’s no guarantee that they will think like we do. We need to ask, what possible type of minds could AIs have? Students are interested in such questions!

Science teachers need to take the lead in schools, learning & teaching what AI (artificial intelligence) is & what it isn't, basic ideas behind it; solved problems in AI; etc

What's a #neuron, how do nerves transmit signals? We can teach fully on-level high school science through creating easy-to-make yet anatomically correct models out of candy. This isn't dumbing science down; this is using all of our senses to better connect with the material: The anatomically correct candy neuron

Can we do a real high school level #genetics lab using only #LEGOs? Well, yes we can! Here is the info & lab. Honors students loved it, and this was originally designed from the ground up for our #SPED students.
