This category is for resources on the role of bioinformatics in education. It is not only about teaching bioinformatics per se, but also about the ways that advances in bioinformatics are changing the whole field of biology, and consequently the teaching and learning of all apsects of biology and life sciences, health sciences, agriculture, environmental sciences, and related fields.
Very good basic explanation of Bioinformatics - from the BioTech Resources Web Project at Indiana Univ and the Univ. of Texas. biotech.icmb.utexas.edu/pages/bioinfo.html
Offers material for a multimedia project in biology and computer science education, highlighting the possibilities of the new Information Technologies in the field of Biocomputing. The target group are pupils aged 16-19 years and their teachers. www.uni-mainz.de/~cfrosch/bc4s/welcome.html
Workshops involve hands-on instruction in the use and development of software tools for genomic and computational biology research. www.bioinformatics.ca
