Another busy week at BIS, and a great Unity in Diversity Day!

This site just passed the 500,000 views mark, which is not something I expected when I started it as an experiment in blogging, ‘Science Teachers’ Video Resources,‘ a few summers ago. It’s morphed into a resource-bank for IB Biology and Science in general, and grows as I find more and more great links for learning about the scientific world.

The resources posted here are first and foremost for my own students – to help them go deeper into Biology and to open the door to the trans-disciplinary realms of Science. It’s great that it has become a useful tool for other students and teachers, and I hope that this is a sign that the resources here are useful. It is great to receive emails and comments from people using the site – especially when they spot a mistake and then I can get it fixed!

I don’t really know who is using this site beyond my students, so please leave a comment below to let me know who you are and what you do here. Even better – tag yourself or your school on this map!

Thank-you for your support!
