Advances in technologies mean that it is so easy to infuse almost real time science into your classroom. I firmly believe that you can do all sorts of stuff for children’s attitude development towards Science by having lots of little ‘tit bits’ happening.

Currently I receive Tweets from two sources off world. One source of messages is from The Phoenix Lander which is the current Mars Mission. I also receive messages from the Cassini probe which orbits Saturn. These messages tell of up coming events, finding and links to some of the most current images.

Check out the the Martian sunrise for yourself http://twitter.com/MarsPhoenix and the icey jet eruptions on the moon Enceladus http://twitter.com/CassiniSaturn.

cheers
