The Concord Consortium has this interesting website that provides computer simulations/models for scientific concepts. The student can select a practice, a core idea, and a crosscutting concept then the website provides several models to play with. At least, that's what I thought it did. I selected as follows Practice: analyzing data Core idea; Earth and space science Cross cutting concept: energy The website gave me a whole bunch of different simulations but it also gave me a really cool real-world experiment on evaporative cooling . Since this week is college and career week at my school I think I'll do this with my class and talk about skipping college and working as an HVAC technician instead.
