One of my favorite web and print magazines is Wired. As a science teacher and gadget lover, Wired definitely has it all for me. You can definitely visit the website anytime, but a subscription is only a mere $10!

Some of these science topics are not only interesting, but also show a real-world application of the science that I teach.

• Periodic Table gets a Makeover
• Garage Based DNA Labs are Here!
• The Battle to Stop Bird Flu
• The Big Gulp: Recycling Astronaut Urine
• The Science Guy Grows Up (Bill Nye for Adults)

There’s also a plethora of pertinent technology information – keep informed about the history of our powerful tools in technology, and keep abreast of new trends on the rise (check out the last article on using RFID tags for student identification).

• The Birth of Google
• 10 Years that Changed the World
• How Wikipedia Wars are Won
• Tagging Kids Like Cattle

And don’t miss the ever-popular “Found”. These are pictures or visions from the possibility of future.

• Mass Transit on Mars (extra credit if you catch the Grok reference)
• Future Prevention of DNA Identity Theft
