Brown Bag, Jan. 25, 2008: Genome Island, Here We Come
This Friday's brown bag will be a tour of Genome Island, one of the foremost science teaching spaces in Second Life.
Genome Island focuses on genetics, its history, seminal research studies, current research technologies, and much more. Max Chatnoir is the owner, and the visionary responsible for incorporating engaging and relevant instruction along with ways to provide assessment and feedback to the students. It is worth exploring Genome even if you are not a scientist, simply for seeing the sheer elegance of instructional integration.
We will meet at, as usual, at the campfire on Wolverine Island, at noon on Friday. Late arrivals should come to Genome and then IM Perplexity Peccable for a TP to wherever we are at that moment.
