    bwelch wrote a new blog post: Collaborative Learning with Plantingscience.org 1 year, 3 months ago

    ThumbnailAs teachers we are always trying to provide “real” research opportunities for our students.  I have utilized a unique opportunity involving the study of plants in conjunction with providing students an actual on-line scientist to provide assistance and feedback concerning their own projects.  This website ( http://www.plantingscience.org) provides…[Read more]

      Good for you Bill. Thanks for the post. I agree, btw, about how even apparently simple investigations if the students are actively engaged with their own design can lead to very powerful learning.

  • Kim Foglia
    We lost a great biology educator, Kim Foglia on Jan. 4th, 2011 after a long, dignified and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.  Back in 2009 a number of AP Biology teachers got together and worked hard to establish an award from NABT, sponsored by Pearson, Benjamin Cummings, recognizing Kim’s unprecedented contributions to the AP Biology teaching commu […]

A hastag is a short character string, preceded […]
