Usually
a trip to the zoo only involves looking at animals as individual organisms,
neglecting their connections to a greater system. The seventh grade life
science and English classes at Whitesboro Middle School have been working together
with scientists from Syracuse University and SUNY ESF, Utica Zoo, and Burnet
Park Zoo to create a web site that will display animals as part of a biome...
the CyberZoo.
The CyberZoo is only one example of how the Living
SchoolBook is researching the use of high end networking technology
in high school and middle school settings. The CyberZoo involves
many partners including Burnet
Park Zoo, Utica Zoo,
and the Museum of Science and Technology
in Syracuse, NY. Also these Living SchoolBook Partner Schools
were involved with the creation of the site: Whitesboro
Middle School, Fowler High School,
and Rome Free Academy.
