NYC High School Kids Participate in Science Online 2010

This is a video collage by Stacy "Ms Bakeriffic" Baker's high school biology students from Staten Island Academy in Staten Island, NY. In this video, they take part in Science Online '10 in North Carolina. They also went to the lemur farm, which makes me SO JEALOUS! I love lemurs!

I am so pleased to see this video of SciO10 -- an event I wish I had attended. On one hand, I am pleased these kids got to experience this and on the other hand, I am jealous, wishing I had ever had such a wonderful opportunity at the same age (and wondering what my life might be today if I had). Regardless of where these kids go and what they do in the future, they have done a great job documenting the really fun, interesting and sadly overlooked aspects of this conference.

Miss Baker's biology students will be writing more about this in the next few days on the class blog, Extreme Biology Blog. One of her students, Jack, already has published his blog entry, and includes a video, too.

I posted only 127 times in May. Apart from many cool videos and various updates, I did blog about other things as well. I went to the WWW2010 conference and wrote my thoughts about it. Open Laboratory submissions are in full swing so I decided to post the old Prefaces and Introductions I wrote for…

Moving on with the morning, once again, I had to make a tough choice. OK, in this case, it wasn't that tough, really, as this was the session I was looking forward to all along: Science online - middle/high school perspective (or: 'how the Facebook generation does it'?) , led by Stacy Baker and…

Lemurs are very cute. Brits of my generation had early exposure to them via Dotty the ring-tailed lemur on Animal Magic.
