Project Details
- "The Digital Learning Center for Microbial Ecology uses multimedia and networking technologies to bring the invisible worlds of microscopic organisms and communities into view and make them accessible to students and teachers everywhere."
- "As a gathering place for ecologists, biochemists, and microbiologists interested in microscopic ecosystems, it serves on extension of this worldwide virtual community, where teachers and students collaborate with colleagues, conduct seminars, and share their findings in a continuous dialog on microbial ecology."
- The environments are supported by both CD-ROM and the World Wide Web. Users can browse multimedia resources online or download stand-alone modules.
