Attention Biologists:
The Biology Education Software Task force--BEST--is a group interested
in extending and improving the use of computer software for undergraduate
education in biology. To that end, we are requesting any available commercial
or in-house programs for review purposes, or any information concerning such
software. This includes all interactive, multimedia, simulation or modeling
software, or any other relevant programs. Software will be reviewed by faculty
and students from a wide range of biological disciplines at the Universtiy of
Washington. We will publish a review of the most useful programs and a list of
where they may be obtained in an appropriate journal.
If you have any software applicable to undergraduate education in
biology, or if you know of anyone who uses software in teaching to whom we
could write personally, please send us e-mail at
BEST at zoology.washington.edu
or write to
BEST
Department of Zoology, NJ-15

If you want to speak to someone personally, David Baldwin can be reached at
