The American Chemical Society launches Spellbound video series on how kids become scientists. This is just one of the videos in the series.
DENVER, Aug. 24, 2011 —The road to a Nobel Prize began for one scientist in elementary school when his father placed a sign on his bedroom door proclaiming him to be a “doctor.” For another Nobel laureate, it was a childhood breakfast with the famous scientist (and Nobelist) Linus Pauling. Another noted researcher went against all expectations of her day to pursue science in school, even though she was a woman. Yet another took inspiration from a yellow sweater knitted by his mother.
Those are among the experiences that helped launch the careers of scientists from diverse backgrounds who are featured in a new video series launched today by the American Chemical Society (ACS), the world’s largest scientific society. Titled Spellbound: How Kids Became Scientists, its debut coincides with the ACS’ 242nd National Meeting & Exposition in Denver and is part of the Society’s observance of the International Year of Chemistry. Rich with high-definition graphics, animations and commentary suitable for classroom use and other audiences of students and non-scientists, the videos are available without charge at the Spellbound website, the ACS Video Theater on YouTube, on iTunes and on DVD by request.

Should “math” be taught in schools? Makes fun of this video. Thanks Patricia for the vid.
It really is real. Yup.
