Students then zero-in on the location of a
deep-sky object and progress through
various telescope viewing options:
i) View through the eyepiece of an
amateur telescope (14" aperture).
ii) Time-exposed image with an amateur
telescope.
iii) Time-exposed image with an
observatory telescope or the Hubble
Space Telescope.
This progression bridges the gap between
what is seen through the eyepiece of an
amateur telescope and the time-exposed
observatory images seen in textbooks.
Observational Astronomy can be operated
in quiz mode where students are tested
and scored on their ability to properly
identify constellations and deep sky
objects, or use the Quiz Editor to create
your own questions.

PHYSICS OF SPORTS:
SIMULATION COLLECTION
By John Di Bartolo
Physics of Sports is a collection of
computer simulations that illustrate the
role played by physics principles in many
popular sports. Each simulation models a
particular sport with the student given full
control over the relevant variables,
creating a highly interactive tool to perform
in-depth studies.
With a high-degree of physical accuracy
and versatility built into each simulation,
students can explore the answer to such
questions as: how is the velocity of a
batted ball influenced by the mass of the
bat and the contact point along the bat,
how does body configuration affect the
rotation of a platform diver, what is the
most forgiving angle at which to shoot a
basketball, or how does top-spin or
back-spin affect the way a ball bounces?
Developed with the goal of capturing
student interest, the program contains 12
stand-alone simulations that model
physics principles from a variety of sports:
Basketball
Baseball
Gymnastics
Diving
Biking
Downhill Skiing
Race Car Driving
Weight Lifting
Vertical Jump
Hammer Throw

VIRTUAL ASTRONOMY
LABORATORY:
COMPUTER-BASED LABS
FOR INTRODUCTORY
ASTRONOMY
By Ian Littlewood
Many of the astronomical observations
and measurements which are of interest in
introductory astronomy labs are not
practical for a variety of reasons, including
equipment restrictions, complexity, and
night time viewing requirements. The 30
computer-based labs contained in Virtual
Astronomy Laboratory are designed to
give students a simulated view of the sky,
allow them to make measurements with
simulated astronomical instruments, and
provide the tools to analyze the data they
have collected. Virtual Astronomy
Laboratory brings a hands-on
experimental lab component to astronomy
courses, requiring only basic math skills
on the student's part. The carefully
selected collection of labs are appropriate
for introductory astronomy courses at the
high school and college level.
Virtual Astronomy Laboratory puts some of
astronomy's most useful instruments into
the hands of students - precise telescope
controls to measure angular size; a
photometer to measure light intensity; and
a spectrograph to measure
Doppler-shifted spectral lines. Time-lapse
and time-exposure photographic
observing methods are also simulated.

PILATES
ANATOMY FOR PILATES
Created in partnership with Pilates World
University, this is a detailed training
resource and reference aimed at Pilates
instructors and those in training.
The anatomy section focuses on the
skeletal, muscular and respiratory systems
with detailed 3D anatomy that includes all
anatomical structures involved in the
exercises.
3D anatomy section also includes
anatomy text with links to 3D muscle atlas
and relevant muscle function animations.

PROTECTIVE
SERVICES
AMENDMENTS, THE
The U.S. Constitution is the world's oldest
written chart of government in continuous
effect. Much of the success of this
document can be attributed to the way the
Constitution has changed to meet the
needs of the American people. The
framers of the Constitution wisely
anticipated the need to make changes to
the Constitution as the world itself
changed. Since 1787 when the
Constitution was written, thousands of
proposed amendments have been
introduced in Congress. Only 27 of those
proposed amendments have been ratified.
These amendments tell some of the most
important stories in American political,
social and cultural history. This
presentation reveals an important chapter
in the ongoing history of the U.S.
Constitution.
