 This website offers a free online library of all of NASA's multimedia content. Users can search for material by keyword or theme (such as Earth, Astronauts, Solar System, or Universe), or they can browse through several featured collections. The site is constantly growing with the addition of current media from NASA, as well as newly digitized media from the archives of the NASA Centers. Cindy Hollingsworth, SpServ

 This is is an open learning community for sharing emerging tools to teach science.  New online resources are researched, reviewed and linked through this website.  Organized by the strands of science standards, it has resources designated as appropriate for 9-12.  I only tried one secondary lesson (about cell structure) and the video for the hemotologist did not play, but there were other portions that worked fine.    Cindy Hollingsworth, SpServ 
http://www.learner.org/interactives/index.html  5 This site has interactive lessons in which students learn about the concept by progressing through the activities.  Concepts covered include DNA, the periodic table, the earth, weather, and the environment.  Most lessons include quizzes at the end of the lesson.  Cindy Hollingsworth, SpServ

 http://www.hippocampus.org/ This website is an "Open Educational Resource"--meaning it's free to use.  The site "offers multimedia lessons and course materials" for science, math, and social sciences.  If you set up your own account, you can customize it for your students.  Science subjects included are Biology, Environmental Science, and Physics.  This site, authored by Monterey Institute for Technology and Education, was forwarded from the US Dept. of Education through the Kansas Math consultant, Sid Cooley.

http://www.shatters.net/celestia/index.html  This is an opensource software download, similar to GoogleEarth but for the universe.  Description from the website:  "A free space simulation download  that lets you explore our universe in three dimensions.  Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to the surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy. All movement in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to spacecraft only a few meters across. A 'point-and-goto' interface makes it simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit."
