Science games

The Federation of American Scientists is supporting the development of a collection of games designed to present science ideas... especially biology. The games are in beta release right now which means they are not yet ready for full deployment, but are close. As the year ends and the weeks are broken up with field trips (and field trip rain days, and half of a class missing on one day the remainder missing the next), I like to have students "sandbox" in sites like this to evaluate those that are worth including in the curriculum for the next year.

If you can't find time to have students test these, then add it to your "to play with" list for this sumer. Perhaps a good way to spend a rainy day!
