Last spring John Silander, Janine Caira, Dave Wagner, Mike Willig, and I answered an internal call for proposals from Jeremy Teitelbaum, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, for awards from his "Fund for innovative education in science". We (mostly John, Janine, and Dave) have developed a series of five modules dealing with GIS, climate modeling, biodiversity modeling, specimen databases, and online databases. The modules are described at http://cyberinfrastructure.uconn.edu/index.html, and more resources will become available in the spring.
Kent,
I looked through the module topics and they look outstanding - do you foresee the materials being made available online in the future, iTunesU maybe?
Many or all of the materials used in the module will be available on the associated website here. I don't know whether we'll try to make them available elsewhere. We haven't discussed that.
