Biology Project Outreach
Proposed CD-ROM
Although the internet is an excellent means of delivering curriculum to students and educators, real barriers still exist when it comes to integrating online materials into courses. Modem access to the www can be slow and cumbersome, computer availablity on campus is often scarce, and network resources may be limited. In addition, public schools often do not have the funding or support to go online.
Fortunately, the materials comprising The Biology Project web site can also be used on a local computer or server. This eliminates the need for an internet connection and can make The Biology Project curriculum available to anyone with a CD-ROM drive and www browser software.
Plans are in the works to create a Biology Project CD-ROM for distribution in the Spring of 1999. Stay Tuned!
