Students explore the relationship between observations and measuring things in science. Specific ways of measuring length, mass, volume, and temperature are demonstrated using tools common to the classroom. Other terminology includes unit of measurement, meter stick, metric ruler, balance, graduated cylinder, and thermometer.
Host Alex Dainis discusses stress tolerance in plants and highlights the ways plants cope in stressful situations. Some of the techniques include growing away from unfavorable conditions and producing chemicals to ward against an infestation.
In this episode, host Dianna Cowern conducts and explains 5 scary physics experiments. She uses dry ice, a Van de Graaff generator, and a plasma ball to demonstrate a few principles of physics. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
In this episode, host Dianna Cowern details her trip to CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. During her visit she explores particles and learns more about the Large Hadron Collider. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
What can scientists and engineers learn from birds? In this episode, host Emily Graslie discusses how studying birds has helped inform human engineering and design. Part of "The Brain Scoop" series.
Dr. Brandon Peecook thought he had made a major paleontological discovery that was going to alter decades of prior research in the field. Then, right before he was about to present his findings, he got a phone call that changed everything. Part of "The Brain Scoop" series.
In this episode, host Dianna Cowern explores how magnetic paper works. She uses the paper on common electronic devices to reveal all their magnetic parts. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
Students learn the concept of buoyancy. In a series of demonstrations, students will make a guess about whether they think an item will sink or float. The items are dropped into a fish tank, and the results are charted. Part of the "Everyday Science for Preschoolers" series.
Singers try to sing into a pipe and find certain notes are impossible to sing, even for professionals. Why does this happen? The answer is resonant frequencies. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
In this episode, host Dianna Cowern studies the power of sound. She joins a group of performers to experiment with the powerful speakers at U Street Music Hall in Washington, DC. Part of the "Physics Girls" series. Please note this video may potentially trigger seizures for viewers with photosensitive epilepsy.
Diffusion is the net movement of anything from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. Diffusion is driven by a gradient in concentration. The concept of diffusion is widely used in many scientific fields. Part of "The Amoeba Sisters" series.
Wearing a mask is a cheap and easy way to help stop the spread of airborne infections like COVID-19. Here's some slow-motion Schlieren imaging experiments to demonstrate why masks work. Part of the "It's Okay to Be Smart" series. Please note this title contains mature themes and references.
The tragic 2013-2015 Ebola outbreak in West Africa shocked the world. Computational geneticist Pardis Sabeti and disease ecologist Lina Moses explain the science behind how this event became the largest Ebola outbreak in history. Part of the “Think Like a Scientist” series.
Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics and labels. Begins with a simple definition of the term and concludes with a critical thinking question. For this particular video, students will focus on the scientific theory. Part of the Science Video Vocab Series.
Ants play important roles in many ecosystems, and a team of scientists are surveying ant populations in Gorongosa Park. Leading the study is Leeanne Alonso, she is cataloging the different species of ants in Gorongosa National Park and establishing a species census to monitor the ongoing recovery of the park.
Show students how easy it is to experiment while introducing them to the concept of magnets in this video demonstration. Students are asked whether they think an item will stick or not to a magnet. The item is then tested, and the results are charted. Part of the “Everyday Science for Preschoolers” series.
Host Dianna Cowern conducts various experiments with a ping pong cannon. She shoots a high-powered ping pong ball at different objects and discusses the physics behind the destruction caused by a speeding ping pong ball. Part of the "Physics Girl" series.
What is a lab notebook? In this episode, host Alex Dainis explains how she uses lab notebook when conducting research. These notebooks are the primary record of research, and researchers use them to document their hypotheses, experiments, and analysis of experiments.
Part of a series that features a wide variety of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated graphics and labels. Begins with a simple definition of the term and concludes with a critical thinking question. For this particular video, students will focus on the term scientific law. Part of the Science Video Vocab Series.
