What are Demos, anyway?

...and if you get bored looking over my stuff, you can check out your weather above...
Demo's are the things we, as science teachers, do to convey to the student just what the heck all this stuff has to do with his/her real world. I've realized many of my students are like I am in that if they actually see a concept in action, it 'sinks in' in a totally different way than by just lecturing, reading, and/or professing. Anyhow, demos are those things we bridge the gap with. The "gap" is that thing between academia and real useable knowledge, not that 'hip' store at the mall...
