- Favorite plant and/or animal and why:
- plant: Lygodesmia juncea - "Skeleton Weed", because it is a hard-nosed and tough minimalist where only the hardy survive.
animal: generally... jellies. Cnidarians are so geometrically interesting from a design perspective, and they persist and thrive on this planet to this day with a relatively small set of simple tools.

You've Been Nominated!
Guess what: our shiny little network has recently made the final nomination cut for the Eddies... the 2008 Edublogs Awards. Principles of Biology was nominated in the category of "best educational use of a social networking service." Our site made the final cut from all original nominees and is now open for voting.
I was not aware that the site was nominated until I was voting there, category by category myself, and was quite s… Continue

"Storm of the Century?" -An Interesting Use of Ning
Gustav is one ugly storm. It is a category 4 storm that only lost wind speed by 10mph as it passed over land in Cuba today. Even uglier is the path it is taking. Gustav is taking a steady NW aim toward Louisiana, and perhaps, New Orleans.

I made a Flickr, and I'm not sure what protections to put on it. I chose noncommercial-creative commons.
Is that ok?

Looking forward to have a great time!
Ali! Your 2nd FEX

ricky maddox said… - How long has the Live Traffic Feed been on here? Its a really cool addition to the site, I always liked the cluster map but that has a better effect I think because you can see who is checking out the site at any moment :)

Gerry Rayner said… - Perspectives on what biology students do and study elsewhere in the world is both relevant and can really stimulate further discussion among students --> leading to better understanding about difficult concepts (eg evolution) or complex processes (say respiration). I've noticed that students using our Discussion group forums in Blackboard benefit from peer feedback and these interactions help to clarify things.
Further, students (wherever they are) can be inspired by your vids (very neat, great soundtrack!) on fieldwork in exotic places, and better appreciate this wonderful but fragile world we inhabit.
Students also learn other skills like netiquette and how to ask appropriate questions about misconceptions etc, without asking for easy answers.

- Hey from sunny Oz: this is a great networking site and think the posts add value to college and uni biology education - will recommend my students join. Good luck with the Edublog awards!

MIchelle said… - i was wondering if there was anyway that you can keep us posted on what our grades are in your class. i just figured since you email us other things that you could do that also. sometimes i don't have internet connection so it makes it hard for me to post by certain times, so i do it when i do get my internet to work. but i don't always know if i get it all done.
it would just be nice to stay updated on how i'm doing! thanks.

Wow... your snowman really does look a bit like Aziz!
;)
In this website, I thought it interesting, yet simple. Check it out for yourself. :)
I couldn't find any credibility on it, though. But when I went to the homepage, it came from a secondary school. That's as far as I could go regarding credibility…
I feel kind of lame having the last three posts on this! But Aziz and I had a discussion and it turns out our video is kind of the same! Mine has the music and a newscast, while whoever did Aziz's took the animation and narrated it. So I thought I w…
I will take lottery ticket A...immediately!
A very interesting argument that suggests taking action to avoid any potential global climate crisis.
Now I can see this post, but not the other one where I put on the picture and claimed that this post was gone. What's going on?!? I also know Ivory posted after this one...and I saw both mine and Ivorys in class. Hmmm...
I like your pictures Laci :)
When I started my research I searched for “cellular structure and function” and even know Mr. Nash said not to just choose the first thing that pops up, but in this case the first two links that popped up were the same website called Cellular Biolog…
I was ultimately against posting a video, and doing an actual website.. BUT I really love this video from Harvard. It shows you what goes on inside the cell. It's set to beautiful background music, and I think it shows how much "art" is really insid…
This cite definitely give more information then the last one. This one u can actually click on stuff so have fun!! The backing of this cite is really good too.
When I had this typed up in google docs it showed the different links that I had used. Now it's not showing them at all so this is the link that that i chose for this assignment.
I like this site a lot... It's kind of boring-ish... But the way it chunks information and how it's worded is easy for me to understand. Kudos, Shandis.
I used it in Zoology my sophomore year and I remembered it was a really great learning tool. Thanks :)
Actually, no... I didn't read about the background knowledge of Mr. Sullivan. He is a very accomplished man... This site a quite creditable... Yes, sadly it is a little out dated. But I still dig it... :)
