August 21, 2009Using DIVE Science Video
August 18, 2009DIVE Science is not your ordinary high school science curriculum. While the textbook is at the heart of most science courses, the video lectures, labsĀ and homework are the foundation of DIVE Science. Watch the video to learn more about how you can use DIVE Science to get a college preparatory high school science education taught from a Christian foundation.
Why Use DIVE Math
August 15, 2009DIVE Math is simply CD-ROM Lectures that teach Saxon Mathematics. Designed with homeschooling families in mind, DIVE CDs eliminate teacher preparation and lecture time, and allow students to go at their own pace. Dr. Shormann teaches using a learn-by-doing approach, with each lecture starting with a brief introduction, followed by several practice problems that the student works on their own paper. Taught from a Christian worldview, Dr. Shormann teaches that mathematics is the language of science and a tool for studying God’s creation. Watch the video to learn more on how DIVE compares to other curriculum, and how your child can get a great mathematics education using DIVE and Saxon!

Novarupta and the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes

If you want to go somewhere that is vastly different than pretty much anywhere else on earth, then this is the place to be! Here is a YouTube video I made about the trip, that includes a discussion of a young Earth, and me getting zapped by a bear fence.
