An archive of almost 3000 audio and video podcasts from Oxford University, many of which are licensed under the Creative Commons. Some of the items give information on courses and research opportunities within particular departments, but most are recordings of lectures or discussions. Examples are: a series of interviews with leading influential thinkers on bio-ethics; the John Locke lectures in philosophy; lectures from the Centenary of Engineering Science series; lectures and seminars from the Oxford Internet Institute; the Oxford Media Research seminars hosted by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.

ScienceHack is a search engine for science videos. The site does not itself host videos but indexes them from sources such as YouTube and Metacafe. All videos included in the database have been approved by a panel of scientists for accuracy and quality. At the moment there are relatively few videos listed under each topic heading, but a section on the home page lists latest additions to the database.

Two series of ten-minute podcasts in which Professor Jim al-Khalili of Surrey University talks about a range of different topics in science. The first five podcasts are mostly connected with his interests in medieval Arabic science and the second series covers topics ranging from the Dirac Equation & Olber’s Paradox to whether we have free will or can travel in time.

Recently, in post-16 specifications, thermodynamics has been taught with the emphasis on energetics - using ΔH for a reaction as the indication of whether it is likely to ‘go’ or not. This site looks at an alternative, and more fundamental, approach. This starts from a consideration of the chance behaviour of particles and energy, and sees how this leads to the entirely predictable outcomes of chemical reactions. The site is split into three main areas: tutorials, simulations, and videos. These videos cover the direction of chemical reactions, the Second Law of Thermodynamics, Gibbs free energy, and entropy - gas, liquid and solid.

Calling itself the ‘first scientific video journal’, Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) is a peer-reviewed, online journal devoted to the publication of biological, medical, chemical and physical research in a video format. Video articles are organised into sections on Neuroscience, Immunity & Infection, Clinical & Translational Medicine, Bioengineering, Applied Physics. JoVE is devoted to publishing scientific research in a visual format in order to introduce clarity, dynamism and efficiency into the scientific process. Many of the videos require a subscription in order to be able to see beyond a brief preview.
