This arrived in my mail today from REANZ and I wondered if it is new to you and your schools, or maybe some BLP schools are already engaging with this. Please let us know with a comment, Thanks, Niki
Real science for NZ's brightest budding biologists
The LENScience Senior Biology Seminar Series connects world-leading scientists with Year 13 biology students throughout New Zealand for regular curriculum-linked seminars. The interactive e-learning experience is broadcast via video conferencing and multicast on KAREN to the National Education Network (NEN), and over satellite television. "We're facing a global shortage of science graduates just when we need them most, KAREN is helping us to turn the problem around," says Jacquie Bay, Director LENScience. For more, you can read the Growing the next generation of scientists case study. See the LENScience website for the schedule of seminars for 2011.
