Here are some interesting sites that I’ve found this week,
thanks to my PLN. As a teacher, I feel we have to keep up to date concerning
research in our field and current issues in the education system. I hope some
of these inspire you, inform you, and even have you asking questions. Thank you
for coming by and visiting!

Turbulence
– “What is turbulence and why does it happen? Explore the phenomenon that
has perplexed physicists for over a century. -- You’re on an airplane when you
feel a sudden jolt. Outside your window nothing seems to be happening, yet the
plane continues to rattle you and your fellow passengers as it passes through
turbulent air in the atmosphere. What exactly is turbulence, and why does it
happen? Tomás Chor dives into one of the prevailing mysteries of physics: the
complex phenomenon of turbulence.” (L:M,H;SA:S)
