ClipBank science is an easy-to-access, searchable library
of almost 250 high quality, digital television clips which
bring to life 42 key science topics for ages 11 and up.
Once again, please make sure that you have read the terms
and conditions before using this service.
ClipBank science is indexed by topic, the type of science
covered and by the QCA's Schemes of Work. To get started,
select one of these options from the left-hand menu to browse
through the clips.
You have access to the clips in two different formats: high
quality, MPEG clips, ideal for use on a big screen or an
interactive whiteboard, and Real Player clips for multiple,
simultaneous use by a number of users. Each clip is
accompanied by a description of its content, its learning
context, links to other relevant clips, and a glossary of key
words.
Further functionality which is available as a download(s)
via the Internet includes:
1. Free text searching
2.
The ability to bookmark video clip selections ("playlists")
allowing you to navigate the same path of clips in future
lessons
3. A function which will allow you to screen grab
from any clip(s) for use in other applications
4. An easy
way to embed video clip(s) in your school's presentations.
ClipBank science complements Channel 4 Learning's ten
