An awesome look at the solar system, it works incredibly well with small groups of students at the SMART Board. The goal here is for students to spend some time experimenting with the tools on the side (you can slow down the speed of orbits, zoom in, change the central object to follow, etc.) as well as work through the tutorial.
Yet another great example of inquiry based learning amplified by an interactive whiteboard.
Looking for curriculum ties?
