Heartland has purchased access to the ProQuest eLibrary Science database. Several schools used it on a pilot basis last year and found it to be a unique and important teaching resource. It includes science content and tools along with unique videos and dozens of manipulatives. Here are a few highlights:
- Browse a list of famous scientists and view accounts of their lives.
- Science in the news.
- Today in science history.
- Transcripts of CNN Science and Technology Week, NPR Sounds Like Science, NPR Talk of the Nation Science Friday.
- 3D Animation Science.
- A.D.A.M. Animation Library.
- National Library of Virtual Manipulatives.
- Books, journals, magazines, newspapers.
