ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

I've been working on a project for a while now and decided to release it
in beta form since many people are talking about similar ideas.  I
created a wiki, similar to Wikipedia, which focuses on Science
Demonstrations.  This will allow anyone to add or view the collection of
demos.  My hope is that we can create an online repository for all the
demos we use in museums.  Each demo will be categorized by what topic it
relates to.  This way if someone is looking for a demo related to
flight, they could go to the flight category and browse through all
related demos and find one that works for their show.  As I mentioned,
it's still in beta testing so I'm not sure we've got all the bugs worked
out.  Currently there are only a few demos on the site but more will be
added soon.  Please add your favorite demo (and images of it) to the
site for everyone to use.  If you have any questions or suggestions for
how to improve it, please email me off list.  The wiki can be found at:

All input is welcome and I hope this will be useful to other museums and
teachers.

Cheers,
