These on-line resources are available for K-12 students and teachers, college students and teachers, and professional research physicists and astronomers.
The Physics Resource Center (PSRC) is a project of the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) with support from the Campaign for Physics. The PSRC provides teacher resources for the entire spectrum of learners.
The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA), is the largest organization in the world promoting science teaching and learning for all. NSTA maintains a content-rich website (www.nsta.org) that provides classroom resources, news and information, and opportunities for educators to connect with one another.
These pages maintained by Professor Scott Williams are a rich source of historical and biographical information on African American physicists.
A NASA website about missions to explore the universe, the planets, and Sun-Earth Connection, complete with news, program funding, and education resources.
A directory of NASA space science products for use in classrooms, science museums, planetaria, and other settings.
PhysLink.com is a comprehensive website providing online physics and astronomy educational resources, as well as research and reference tools.
NASAexplorers provides weekly K-12 educational articles and lesson plans on current NASA projects. These resources are free of charge, and are printable and downloadable.
The Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., and the Delta Research and Education Foundation (DREF), in partnership with the AAAS Directorate for Education and Human Resources Programs, are developing and implementing a 5-year Science and Everyday Experiences (SEE) Initiative, an informal science education project funded by the National Science Foundation. The SEE Initiative will help parents and caregivers of African American elementary and middle school age children (K-8) develop effective ways to support children's informal science and mathematics learning experiences. Listen to interviews of NSBP members, Drs. Beth Brown (show 101) and Jim Gates (show 109).
The objectives of Edward Bouchet Abdus Salam Institute (EBASI) include: [1] Providing a mechanism for synergistic scientific and technical collaborations between African and American physical scientists, engineers, and technologists; [2] Enhancing the impact of science and technology on the sustainable development of the countries on the African continent, and more specifically; [3] Increasing the technical manpower pool working in Africa today by facilitating the training of Ph.D. students from African universities. African American and physicists from various African nations that are affiliated with Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics and the National Society of Black Physicists (USA) organize and manage the institute.
PhysNet is a distributed information service. It uses the information which can be found on the web-servers of the worldwide distributed physics institutions and departments of universities seen as a distributed database. The aim of PhysNet is to provide a longtime stable and distributed information service for physics with the collaboration of many national and international societies and physics organisations.
PhysOrg is an online resource, totally dedicated to scientific discussions on physics, including such areas as nano- and quantum physics, applied physics, and semiconductor technology. We also have the news section about the latest scientific achievements in these areas.
Albert Einstein stands as the most renowned physicist of all time. In 1905 he published 5 papers, all 5 of which could and should have won independent Nobel Prizes. Much less known about Einstein is his anti-racism activism and his work on global human rights.
Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) is an informal national alliance working to build strong learning environments for undergraduate students in mathematics, engineering and various fields of science. PKAL is one of the leading advocates in this country for building and sustaining strong undergraduate programs in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). PKAL focuses on building learning environments that attract and sustain undergraduate students to the study of STEM fields and motivate them to consider careers in related fields. PKAL works to equip teams of faculty and administrators for leadership in reform at the local level, so that students and science are better served, as well as to encourage broad understanding of how strong undergraduate STEM programs serve the national interest.
