Documentaries – Online resources
If you have aspiring student documentarists (is there such a word?) – here are some resources. A documentary film might be a welcome break from the ubiquitous PowerPoint.

Environmental Photo Essays + Images of Protest
Free Technology recently posted Remarkable Images of Protest. The post might lead to some useful resources for environmental, social studies classes & art classes. There is at least one link of interest to math teachers – Fibonacci Sequence Illustrated by Nature
The site is blocked by BESS – but you can check it in the library or at home. Some of the content is definitely PG-13. 10 Most Suggestive Cacti On Earth for example =) Still – there are many interesting articles/phot essays such as:
- 5 Deadliest Effects of Global Warming
- 8 Incredible Green Roofs
- Remarkable Images of Activism from the Last Fifty Years
- Fibonacci Sequence Illustrated by Nature
- The Birth of Stars

Freebies are good.
We have a free trial right now from Gale – a company that produces very high quality databases. College professors will require students to use scholarly resources from databases, and not depend so heavily on websites from the free web. If you want to know more about scholarly resources, check out this video.
I am not sure how long the trial lasts – but it will be at least a month.
This particular trial covers several subject areas.
