UCMP goes international in a new way!
The Danish National Broadcast Corporations science and computer website at www.dr.dk/orbitalen has been granted permission to translate UCMPs History of Evolutionary Thought into Danish for their site. While visiting here with Dave Lindberg, Gerhard Haszprunar, Director of the Natural History Museum of Bavaria, was intrigued with the modules that we have developed for our NSF project, Explorations Through Time. He sent along the URL to his home institution and it looks like these modules will soon be in German! This message from his reviewer: I have visited the pages and think they are extraordinarily well done from the didactic point of view. Particularly outstanding I regard the coordination and interactivity of the various subjects, which are so important for cumulative learning processes. And from the Technology Instruction/Webmaster from Citrus Grove Middle School comes this special thank you message:
While developing our HyperStudio stacks on Dinosaurs, my students and I got on a tangent about Pteranodon/pterodactyls ability to fly. We discovered the amazing website for the UCMP. I didnt know who to thank for having this available to everyone, so youre the lucky one...
Thank you very, very much. Sharing knowledge is such a joy to me, I wish I could tell you how much joy it gives me to see websites like this. V. Simanca |
