About SVR

anya-daddy

Blogging decent video resources for Science teachers and students.

I am an IB DP Biology and Middle School – High School Science and HPD (Health and Personal Development) teacher in Bandung International School, Indonesia.

The materials here are primarily for my own students, but feel free to use them in your own classes. All our presentation are here: Slideshare GuruStip

I’m a bit of a geek, hence this blog.

Hope you find SVR useful.

Steve.

  1. He Steve,

    We are scientist and once a year we do a Science Spoof.

    e.g. the Launch of DiscoverMC-TV, a parody channel with programmes never seen on Discovery channel and National Geographic.

    Or the Xperiment. Fusing Big Brother, Survivor, Total Makeover, Expedition Robinson, the Bachelor, Temptation Island and Idols into a new absurd Real Life Science format.

    Cheers

  2. Greetings all, another video link, probably best on vid arch big jobs.

    Teachers TV has loads of downloadable videos; just about to use their friction video which is highly recommended by others.

    cheers

  3. Thanks Jake, I’ve posted it in the links section to the right. the results of the ‘Ready to Learn’ experiment were interesting -I did some of the activities from the ASE with my HPD class. Not so sure about Brain Gym, though – but it’s good for a laugh.

  4. Hi Steve,

    Awesome blog! Thanks for the support!

  5. Thanks Mary!

    Love the work you guys do at http://www.reefcheck.org

  6. Stephen discovered all this great stuff in the OCC under you material in resources.
    The stuff that you have and its organization is fantastic. It is really overwhelming.
    If you ever want to link up our students here on Long Island, NY let me know.

    I am interested in really having kids explore this IB Biology course on their own with my guidance not telling them what to do, from you material that is what you try to do.

    I think school should be flat world schools. Somehow let communication and students creativity take over.

  10. Hello,

    Can you tell me where can I find your email address?

  11. It’s gurustip[at]yahoo.co.uk

  12. Have you yet been to: http://thesynapse.ning.com ?
    If not, sign in… you’d probably not only find great resources there for what you do on a daily basis. but I would like to invite you to write a blog post there highlighting this site and what all we might find here.

    If you are like me, you can even explicitly say that “Sean invited me to write this post highlighting my blog”….. heh… or something like that. That would make me feel less like a “self-promoter.” But yes- please do, if you are interested. You are building quite the resource here. But yes- be sure to visit The Synapse. There is quite the fun little community developing there.
    ;-)

    • Thanks Sean – I’ve signed up for an account and am now hoping for some spare time. Ning’s a cool resource.

  13. Steve- Love your blog and the resource you’ve set up for teachers! Would you be willing to share with our community of educators over at TheApple.com? I’m setting up a brand new channel just for STEM. Let me know if you’re interested.

  14. Steve,

    If you want to add Facebook or email sharing buttons to your blog posts, there’s a plugin that does it for you: http://www.picturesurf.org/share-buttons

    Hope you find it helpful!

    Cheers,
    Jerry

  15. Hey Steve,

    Great blog. You have put together an absolutely enormous amount of resources. Is your entire IB Biology course online? I teach at an IB school in Melbourne Australia, and although I teach Biology I don’t teach in our IB programme. I teach what we call VCE Biology (http://mrbarlow.wordpress.com/resources/).

    Anyway thanks for the inspiration.

    Mr. Barlow.

    • Hey Mr Barlow,

      Thanks for the comment! I’m aiming to get everything one could need to study the IB Biology course on here (except the labs, of course), though it’s taken a couple of years.

      I’ve seen your website – it’s cool! Really a bunch of interesting stuff! I’ll write a post about it here, once I’ve got a minute (we’re at the beginning of the new year here).

      Cheers,

      Steve.
