Oh my gosh. I think this would be really amazing for the classroom. I know I learn much better when I have not only someone speaking to me, and text but also hands on visual aid and all kids learn differently so implementing this would be awesome. Also, it's pretty heckin neat. You're a science teacher? ^_^ You just keep getting cooler.
Thats what I thought, too. I worked so much better when I could explore things on my own and not have the assignment/lesson prescribed to me, so when I saw these I was so excited. And tomorrow is my last day as a substitute teacher before I go back to teaching science. I taught part-time last year for a while before I had to quit. It was a terrible time leaving my students, but I was in a bad spot and had to take care of myself before getting back into the classroom again.
I am glad you can get back to doing what you love. <3 I totally get having to tak care of yourself first. Honestly I would like to see stuff like this geared at adults too! I want to explore science in an interactive way! I never really had formal education during my rocky, abusive, poverty-filled childhood so I try to take learning into my own hands and find that with aids that make it fun I do much better. :)
I really enjoy following you. You are one interesting, smart cookie.
Thanks, I am glad I got back to it as well! You're posts are very interesting to read also. And yes, adults need more learning tools. I will be sure to share anything I find that can be used for kids and adults alike. I'm trying not to paint myself into a corner with all of the teaching/education stuff on here, but my gosh do I find it so interesting, and I hope others do as well.
I have been doing a lot of science and tech related stuff myself as well as book related so I guess it's right up my alley but I know what you mean about trying to stay diverse. :)
