High School Level (and Up) Science Sites

It's sometimes hard to come by stuff geared towards teenagers in the homeschool department. Just so you know I'm thinking of them, here are a few interactive science sites I've come across which are pretty neat, but definitely over the heads of their younger brothers and sisters.

• Dr. Saul's Biology in Motion
• ice-albedo feedback, part of a site called Arctic Coastal Ice Processes
• BioInteractive Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tons of advanced biology topics. Be sure you visit the Virtual Labs tab while you're there.
• Computer Programming for Homeschool Students and Other Beginners
• Windows to the Universe (advanced tab)This site is heavy on astronomy and the solar system, but has added areas in "life and diversity," geology, and physics. It also levels information according to your selection of beginner, intermediate, or advanced levels, so you can use it with most age groups.
• Understanding Genetics from The Tech Museum of Innovation. This site includes some neat things likeUnderstanding Genetics-What Color Eyes Would Your Children Have? in the Online Exhibits area, and some at home experiments in the At Home Experiments tab. Genetics is riddled with moral questions however, so be aware that you may see some sticky topics listed on the home page. As a parent, I'd check it out first before setting the teenagers loose on this one."
• Illuminating Photosynthesis This is from Nova Online, and is associated with The Methuselah Tree
• The World's Biomes presented by the University of California Museum of Paleontology
• Interactive Physics Simulations and Biology, and Chemistry, and Math, and Earth Science. This is part of a site called Physics Education Technology from the University of Colorado at Boulder. Blast a Buick out of a cannon. You pick the angle, initial speed, etc. Definitely an enhancement to your science reading.

You are bound to find something here to make science class more interesting and more involving. Science class isn't fun for everyone, but it should be!
