The Annenberg Media organization has created this wonderful new resource for physics teachers, students, and anyone else who would care to learn more about dark matter, string theory, and other "big topics in modern physics". Produced by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics Science Media group along with the Harvard University Department of Physics, this 11-part course features 22 case studies of researchers from leading research labs and universities who are working on exciting new projects in their respective fields. The site includes program descriptions, along with direct links to the full episodes. The series website also contains transcripts of each program, along with teacher's guides, glossary, and several interactive features. All in all, this is a tremendous resource, and one that is worth sharing.
