Collaboration

Layne and Sarah I love the idea that you two will collaborate on the biographies of famous Scientist and their accomplishments for our students in the Academy. Layne great idea to have your students publish them to Wikkipedia. It is a great way to cross collaborate and to use technology that the students can relate to. I would like my Academy class to make a collage image of the Scientist with their accomplishments that can accompany the biographies for each. To further engage students in this project, information on the Internet that includes multimedia such as images would enhance their learning process. Would that work for both of you? Would you send me the names of the Scientist they will be using?

    Now - the biographies will not be published on Wikipedia but the Wiki on www.thechembook.com :)
