Summary:

Age Range: 11 and up (about Middle School, High School, and beyond) A Maryland ClickScholar suggested this website that offers free videos on science, technology, engineering and mathematics that provide a fundamental understanding of the principles of nature and the physical world.

Description:

Scientists have guided the development of the videos so that the content is presented in a natural and engaging way that is intellectually challenging.

When you get to the site you'll see the video icon menu containing an archive of scientific videos which can all be viewed from this non-profit website. The videos cover a broad range of topics such as:

*Interviews with Scientists - Including Nobel Prize-winners in the fields of Physics, Medicine, Chemistry, and more.
