Another of Malcolm Campbell\u2019s efforts, a multimedia presentation entitled \u201cMicroArrays MediaBook,\u201d has received the international Pirelli Award as the \u201cBest Work for Educational Institutions.\u201d Created with collaborators at UNC Chapel Hill, the MicroArrays MediaBook<\/a> shows students how microarrays are created and analyzed, and applications of the technology. Its graphic sophistication commands attention, and students can test their understanding of the material with questions for each section.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Here is a shot of the homepage with their extensive internal links.\u00a0 I agree that the “graphic sophistication commands attention”.\u00a0 I’m still checking it all out and already know that if you touch upon Microarrays in your classroom you should spend sometime this summer checking it out as well…<\/p>\n http:\/\/gcat.davidson.edu\/Pirelli\/index.htm<\/a><\/p>\n Here is an paper activity that I have used to teach about Microarrays<\/a>, a link to the article<\/a> that I use with the activity, although I think I will be modifying things so that students can\u00a0use the MediaBook resources instead.\u00a0 For those beyond a paper activity, Fotodyne has microarray kits for exploring smoking<\/a> and plant photobiology<\/a>, and the Genome Consortium for Active Teaching<\/a> (GCAT) has a wealth of information and resources for developing authentic microarrays (also developed by Malcolm Campbell).<\/p>\n As my father always says, enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" While\u00a0learning about\u00a0those involved in developing the Synthetic Biology survey that some of you may have taken (June 8th post), I serendipitously navigated to a page at Davidson College that made me aware of the Microarrays MediaBook educational website.\u00a0 Here is what I read, including the link that I chose to follow… Another of Malcolm Campbell\u2019s![\"MicroarrayMediaBook\"](\"https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/06\/MicroarrayMediaBook2.jpg\")
