Scoop.it!
Who knew? Infogr.am, a tool that allows you to create infographics, now allows you to include videos in your infographics...with the caveat they must come from YouTube or Vimeo. For more information check out this post from Richard Byrne! Via Beth Dichter

BBC has released another great interactive infographic which allows you to travel through space and learn just how big it is. You begin your trip with blasting off earth and at 6.1 km you will pass the start of the high cloud layer....continue through the stratosphere to the mesosphere to the thermosphere and beyond. After a very long journey you will reach the edges of our solar system, where you will be told "It would take you about 23 million years of continuous scrolling on this scale to get to the farthest regions of the observable universe..."
The distance of our solar system is vast, and this interactive may help our learners begin to understand just how vast it is.
