The Periodic Videos team at the University of Nottingham has assembled a tremendous resource for Chemistry teachers and students using the TED-Ed platform. Here readers will find 103 lessons - one for every single element on the periodic table. Take, for instance, the lesson on Helium (He), which has been viewed more than 540,000 times. Readers may begin with the approximately five-minute video, then proceed to the Think section, where multiple choices test what students have learned from the video. Selecting Dig Deeper links readers to YouTube videos, also produced by the Periodic Videos team, which present such topics as the shortage of helium, how to combine hydrogen and helium, and the chemistry of the sun. Readers may also customize any one of the 103 lessons on the site to their own needs in the classroom.

Last featured in the 03-27-2020 Scout Report, Wildlife Thailand reminds users that appreciating and protecting wild spaces is not just for scholars and researchers. As a community forum highlighting Thailand's beautiful natural spaces, the website allows readers from all over the world to participate in ecology efforts.
Skip the plane ticket: Exploring Thailand's beautiful landscapes and diverse flora and fauna is now just a click away with Wildlife Thailand. This resource serves as a community platform to share experiences with Thailand's wildlife, nature, and protected areas and celebrate Thailand's outstanding wildlife and National Parks. On the Forum page, readers can browse posts on topics such as "Wildlife Sanctuaries in Thailand" and "Birds and Birding," and those interested in contributing can create a free account to do so. Topical posts can also be found under the Articles tab. Selecting the All Categories sub-section, users will see a full list of the subjects available. Readers wondering how a yellow throated marten behaves in the wild, or wanting to watch a clouded leopard in its natural habitat, look no further than the website's video gallery (found under the Galleries tab). The Galleries tab also provides a list of other resources on Thailand's wildlife. Some sites are species specific (for example, organizations for birds and bats are highlighted), while others provide general information on parks and biodiversity.
