Monster
Exchange
http://www.monsterexchange.org/
"Monster Exchange is designed to encourage the development
of reading and writing skills while integrating Internet technology
into the classroom curriculum. Classrooms from a variety of schools
worldwide are paired together; the students in each classroom are
split into groups, each of which designs an original picture of a
monster.
The students must then write a description of the monster. The
partnered classes then exchange their descriptions via e-mail and
the Internet. These students are then challenged to use reading
comprehension skills to read the descriptions and translate them
into a monster picture. The true challenge involves creating a
redrawn picture as close to the original picture as possible without
looking at the original and using only the written description of
the monster." |

This site was created for educational use by a professor at
Indiana University. Series of time-lapse photographs were put
together to create movies of such things as seed germination and
flower development as well as other changes in a variety of plants. |
