SciLINKS NTSA Science Educators Award

The Bryant Watershed Atlas was selected by the National Science Teachers Association as one of the web sites listed in the SciLINKS service, which connects students' school textbooks to useful online content. When a reader of a sciLINKed textbook comes across a sciLINKS icon in their textbook, they know that the content on that page has been enhanced with online content specifically connected to a single concept. The reader goes to the free sciLINKS web site, types a code found on the pages of that text, and the sciLINKS search engine reports the pages the teachers selected.

Educators and Students: Learn more about the SciLINKS service at http://www.scilinks.org. You must register as a student or teacher to participate in the features of the web site.
