This particular virtual biology "corner" is maintained and updated by science educator Shannan Muskopf. On the site, visitors will find labs, worksheets, and various classroom activities. The "webquests" feature on the site is particularly interesting; this type of exercise requires students to peruse several websites that address a certain theme or topic. Some of the themes covered include bioethics, evolution, and genetics. Moving on, the site also contains a "Lesson Plans" area. Here visitors can look over such offerings as "Biodiversity of Ponds", "Estimating Population Size", and "Comparing Ecosystems". Additionally, the site also contains a section of online quizzes and links to other science education resource websites of note.
