There are two "Digital Teaching Boxes" available. It is unclear if you need "digital box cutters" to access them, but I reasonably sure you need some form of computer.  Information follows:
 
"New Resources from DLESE (Digital Library for Earth Science Education)
Two prototype ready-to-use DLESE Teaching Boxes are available for 
educators: Evidence for Plate Tectonics, and Essentials of Weather.

Just what is a Teaching Box? It is an online assembly of interrelated 
learning concepts, digital resources, and cohesive narration that helps 
make connections between individual resources and learning goals. 
Instructors and students can pick a topic, view the concepts that build an 
understanding of that topic, explore online resources that support 
learning of those concepts, and benefit from the narration (the glue) that 
weaves concepts, activities, and background information together into a 
complete teaching/learning story. Students are excited to discover and 
engage their curiosity about science"
 
Remember to contact me for a good price on your digital film needs.
 
With firm handshake,
Raleigh
