SRA has developed a new science textbook that correlates directly to DVD based science videos. The new program is called “SRA Snapshots Video Science”. Science is one area where seeing things in action can greatly enhance understanding. The way the program works is that you have a introduction video for each lesson, then students go to the book to get detailed information and assessment activities. This tight relationship between video and text is very beneficial. The down side is that there seems to be a lack of hands on activities built into the program.

Right now they are offering a free DVD demo of the program. It is worth looking at.
