Links for BioEducators

Over lunch at the BioEducators workshop this weekend there was some discussion about bioscience teaching resources. Not the lack of resources because there was no shortage of ideas and examples being passed around, but rather a place to find and share these resources.
Based on what everyone had to share, what the presenters suggested, and a few additions on my own that I have bookmarked here are some sites worth visiting.
We also talked about the value of a Wiki to share resources and we can only hope something like that comes to fruition.
In the meantime check these out, post a comment to add some more, and I'll keep compiling them and create some new webpages with the links.
You can also e-mail us directly at info@genomealberta.ca if you have any ideas.

That’s great, I never thought about online education like that before.
