Are you interested in STEM? There are numerous resources out there waiting for you! In this short article, we have selected four websites full of entertaining scientific content. Ready to take a look? Let’s dive in!

SubscribED dynamic library

This online library gathers resources from an unusual database: social media! Most of the content comes from YouTube or TikTok, which makes for fun short educational videos. Are you interested in maths and science? New technologies? The English language? Then you should definitely visit the web page of this European project.

A few concrete examples:

• Did you think that fire always had to be red and yellow? This video will show you colours you might never have expected from the flames!
• If you have ever wondered what and how animals can see, this video might give you an interesting insight.

Kurzgesagt – In a nutshell

This animated YouTube channel discusses everything scientific, no matter how plausible the initial statement is. What does an animal society look like? What does space hide from us? What would happen if the Moon was to crash on Earth? Hundreds of questions – most of which we assume you have never asked – find an answer in their videos. And, if you are not quite convinced just yet, these videos are 100% scientific indeed, and a bibliography is available in their description.

A few concrete examples:

• This video will show you the link between breathing and the size of life forms.
• If you ever wondered what would happen if all nuclear weapons were to explode at the same time, you can find information here.
