About
Science VOD is a collection of hundreds of science-related videos that make science accessible in an engaging and clear way. The repository is used for teaching and learning purposes. To this end, all videos have been tagged according to the topics found in the national science and mathematics curricula for elementary, middle, and high school. This allows science teachers to easily find information and supporting materials on curricular topics.
In addition to the video repository, Science VOD offers activities based on these videos for teachers to use in their classrooms. The activities were developed by a professional team skilled in both pedagogy and science.
The activity repository includes full lesson plans and interactive videos that present questions and additional layers of information beyond what is taught in class. The videos and activities can be used to introduce a topic, explore it, or summarize it—combining active learning and teamwork among students, including collaborative knowledge building and connecting scientific principles to students’ everyday lives.
The activities are also tagged according to 21st-century learning skills, and some offer teachers alternative assessment options and extracurricular enrichment. Our video and activity repository is a unique source in Israel for accurate and accessible educational materials for all Hebrew-speaking audiences studying science and mathematics.
