#20 of 365 - Science Teaching Aids

This site offers a growing bank of highly visual teaching-aids developed for use with interactive whiteboards.

The resources are designed to be used as rich sources of visually stimulating material, making use of both animations and drag and drop interactivity.

It is hoped that the resources will help students to make sense of some of the more challenging concepts they encounter.
