I can not stand Justin Bieber. Maybe its the undeniable fact that he’s 12 and has little talent and he’s rich. I don’t know, it makes me mad to believe that so many girls are obsessed with him.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

I’ve always hated Science, but never “Science Experiments”..

Well using students interests will ultimately mean they are interested in the topic in hand. As a result you will end up with projects that have had great time, effort and enthusiasm put into them. Little would they know….they would have learned something along they way!

Great Post!

Flying is another hot topic for many kids. Many kids are amazed by airplanes or birds, so the opportunity for science projects relating to Aviation (ie: Lift/Drag/etc) or Birds presents it self quite often.

In later education years (ie: high school or college) it can be even more amazing the type of projects that can be completed. Think about taking a GPS logging device up in an airplane and then plotting your course using Google Earth so you can visually see your path in 3D.

Very interesting article! I like the idea of relating science to kids’ interests as opposed to just cramming facts down their throats (which is how I was taught, and why I don’t remember any of it now!)
Thanks,

My job involves some science and I have to show clients some experiments to convince them. Some of them told me, “I don’t want to know all these scientific stuffs!”
LOL. I guess not only kids get bored. But adult too.

Yeah it’s crazy how many students have no interest in Math or Scienece these days. These are the most improtant subjects for our society today in my opinion.
