Chalkbored Lessons (11/30/07)
Before I was an author, I was a teacher. Like most teachers, I spent hours creating resources such as worksheets, handouts, and PowerPoint presentations for use in my classes. It seems a waste to let all my past work sit on a shelf (or hard drive) collecting dust. Feel free to use them in your classroom or for your personal use. However, they are not to be shared, sold, or distributed in any manner without permission.

Einstein Light: Relativity is 100 years old this year - but not widely understood. Einstein Light aims to change that. Aimed at the lay person Einstein light has several film clips (about a minute each) that use demonstrations and 3D animations to give overviews to Galilean relativity, electromagnetism, Einstein relativiy, time dilation and length contraction, E=mc2 and beyond relativity. But for those who have questions and who want to go deeper and further, there are dozens of supporting pages, at levels with or without mathematics.

Eisenhower National Clearinghouse: It's purpose is to encourage the adoption and use of K-12 curriculum materials and programs which support state and national efforts to improve teaching and learning in mathematics and science.
