As an art teacher I was daunted by the task of subbing for a 7th grade science class in Genetics. Then I remembered Genome Island and decided that a virtual field trip to Second Life was just the thing to start with. I put the teacher's notes into a SMART Notebook file, jazzed them up with digital coin flipping and graphics and voila! I had a class that was engaging and made me look like I knew what I was doing! That is the power of technology integration :)
