Why do some objects feel colder when in reality they are the same temperature?

In this video pedestrians pedestrians in a park are asked why a hard drive
and a book sitting at the same temperature have a different temperature  feel to it.  The hard drive feels colder than the book.  He then takes an   aluminum plate and a plastic plate to see which plate melts ice quicker.  Even though the aluminum plate feels colder, it melts the ice quicker.  This is a good experiment to try with your students.

The Calvin Cycle of Energy Video

A hearty bowl of cereal gives you the energy to start your day, but how exactly did that energy make its way into your bowl? It all begins with photosynthesis, the process that converts the air we breathe into energizing glucose. This video details the highly efficient second phase of photosynthesis -- called the Calvin cycle -- which converts carbon dioxide into sugar with some clever mix-and-match math.
