Media Review: American Biology Teacher

Canopy in the Clouds is reviewed in the January 2012 edition of the American Biology Teacher.  According to the article, written by life science teacher Marisa Castronova,

“Today’s student is very technologically savvy, yearning to learn at his or her own pace. This resource satisfies that need while exposing the student to an otherwise hidden world. Get ready, pack your bags, and visit “Canopy in the Clouds” to plan your itin- erary. Your virtual field trip is just one click away. I highly recommend “Canopy in the Clouds” for grades 6–12, although its con- tent and lesson plans can be modified for use by other grades. Tutorial videos are also provided. For those without a high-speed Internet connection, the project team is developing a DVD version.”
