I thought some of you might be interested in these resources available online (free) for use by educators. Here's the blurb: <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> "NATURE Online, the award-winning Web companion to PBS' broadcast series is now offering educators more than 40 free downloadable video segments that can be shared with students and colleagues in any kind of free, educational presentation. NATURE's video segments, ranging in length from approximately 30 seconds to 5 minutes, are incorporated into standards based lesson plans. The segments can be downloaded to personal computers or compatible viewing devices; usage is restricted to the United States only. In addition to video segments, there are hundreds of still images that are shareable, printable and saveable. For more information, including accompanying NATURE's teachers' guides, visit http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/ eČ, an ongoing PBS series about the economies of being environmentally conscious, chronicles global efforts to solve pressing ecological challenges. eČ has 18 downloadable video segments, including six from the current season (Season 3). These are accompanied by pre- and post-viewing discussion questions, background readings, and classroom activities and projects.
