I'm sure that the science behind the solar panel is over my head, but still I was curious.
I've been listening to/watching podcasts for my "Using Podcasts to Differentiate Instruction" workshop in Chillicothe this week. I happened upon this podcast, in the iTunes U section from the University of California Televison (UCTV), called "The Power of the Sun: The Science of the Silicon Solar Cell." If you have iTunes installed, here is the link. If you don't have iTunes, you can check out their web site.
Granted, it is some real chemistry and other sciences, but this podcast - if you stick with it - makes it very understandable. Just one example of the vast amount of content out there for our schools that is totally free and right on target for K-12 education. UCTV alone has more than 300 video podcasts, and they are just one of the Universities in iTunes U.
If you have a great podcast to share, post the iTunes link in the comments. (In iTunes, right click on the podcast and choose "Copy iTunes Store URL".)
