I'm preparing for an institute and will be doing some professional development for science teachers in 1:1 classrooms. I've worked with science teachers around the use of Google Docs/Forms/Spreadsheets, Wikis, Simulations/Applets, Screencasting, Wordle, etc. in previous PD sessions.
What are some of your favorite Web 2.0 tools for use in a inquiry based science class (MS or HS)?

Gizmos is a GREAT online simulation site that has lots of great information, inquiry based. I can't remember what the enrollment fee is for the site but some of the materials online can be accessed for free or under the 30-day trial.
I would be interested to hear if there are others out there. I teach elementary school but I have the same question.
Looking forward to reading what other sources are found.

Hi,
I use the following sites that have a welath of information in chemistry.

I've used WISE before and recommend it. They've recently launched a new version that I haven't had a chance to really explore yet. The content is some MS and some HS spread across various disciplines. WISE isn't a tool but an inquiry environment. If you want inquiry it is a must see. I've used sites such as Glogster and GoAnimate with some success in the classroom as well.

Wow! I just signed up for WISE and took a look at one of the projects. This is an excellent resource! Thank you Scott.

Dear Joselyn,
I teach chemistry for IB students. Are there any sites that can be used to teach simulations and molecular modelling in the classroom?
Thank you.

Here are a few websites that I use.

Hope they help!
