Welcome

welcome to the Biology section.  At last it is finished. Where there are several songs or videos that are down for one concept do let me know which one helps you best. Some are fairly basic for those of you who struggle with the subject whilst others go further for those of you who like a challenge. 

 

Enjoy

Technical Info

The videos on this web site are avi files encoded using the xvid codec.  this codec and many others can be downloaded and installed from a variety of web sites the K lite codec pack is very useful. The videoLan player is an open source player that will also play almost any video file and is available for at least 19 different operating systems.  For ipad download VM player HD lite. This will allow you to watch videos up to 30 minutes long. For longer videos you will need to buy the full version.

One of the pieces of software that we have available for teaching you is Sunflower for Science.  It is very useful as it has great animations that help explain scientific ideas.

 

You may well see your teachers using this in class.  There may be a particular animation that your teacher will suggest you look at again at a later date to help you revise / consolidate your understanding.

 

They will give you a code that will be several letters an numbers long to enable you to access this.

 

You will need to install some software onto your ipad / pc / mac book from this site.  Unfortunately it does not work on phones.
