Earth Science Review. Each edition (posted roughly every two weeks) of WBESR
contains reviews of (and links to) earth science-related websites. The HOTLINKS
Page contains hypertext links to almost 2,000 earth science- and natural science-related
websites. Hypertext links are updated every month to weed out dead or difficult-to-load
links. WBESR is appropriate for use by students of all ages, educators, scientists,
and interested amateurs.
The Why Files , a National Institute of Science Education project funded by the National Science Foundation. Look here for the
science behind the news. Twice a month, they post a new feature on the science (and math, engineering, and technology) of everyday life, from outer space to cellular biology, from dinosaurs and
dragon lizards to the statistics of political polling. A search facility is provided to look up information from their archives.
Science Learning Network. This site showcases science information, information, virtual movies, and other science features at a consortium of museums
and schools funded by NSF and Unisys.
The Explorer’s Natural Science Outline. Developed by the Great Lakes
Collaborative and University of Kansas Unite Group this service provides an comprehensive outline of science topics, each with links to K-12 instructional materials. Most require downloading PDF or
HQX files.
North Central Regional Library’s Science site, this site is aimed at providing information to improve science curriculum
and instruction and provides information about Internet-based science materials, Hands-on experiences in science, curriculum implementation, assessment, science standards, and links to many excellent
resources.
