Probably the biggest use of online technology I have used in my classroom is video streaming. I have found that videos are excellent teaching tools, especially for harder or more abstract science concepts. I have used videos for topics such as planetary motion, DNA sequencing, biodiversity and evolution, and the rock cycle. (I teach an earth science and a life science class). My students really do seem to enjoy watching the videos and they retain the information quite well (based on quizzes that I give them after the lesson).
