Free Interactive Science Education DVD from Cornell University

Cornell University’s Garden Mosaics Program recently released an
innovative series of new products, including an interactive DVD for
educators. DVD users will be able to view live footage of educators
conducting program activities with youth and elders, download the Program
Manual including a series of illustrated activity and fact sheets, and
link to many other educational resources. Additional products available
through the Garden Mosaics website include 37 colorful illustrated Science
Pages, covering topics ranging from airphotos to insects, to unusual
plants and their uses. A free copy of the Interactive DVD is available for
a limited time to the first 500 educators who fill out a short evaluation
survey on the Garden Mosaics website.

Garden Mosaics is funded by the National Science Foundation and private
donors. Our mission is to connect youth and elders to investigate the
mosaic of plants, people, and cultures in gardens. Garden Mosaics youth
learn to appreciate the diversity of plants and cultures in their
community, form positive relationships with adults, learn about science,
take action to benefit their neighborhood, and participate in a global
project to help the environment and food system. For more information,
visit our website at www.gardenmosaics.org, or contact Jamila Simon at:
