Web presence

Hi All,

Below is a link to my "web presence. I am not sure if you will be able to open it as I created it through a Penn State blog,
and it is restricted to those with a Penn State user ID (which you all should have since you are all students at Penn State).

This blog organizes 7 "lessons" revolving around the book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks which PSU Brandywine has
selected as a "one campus, one read" book. The committee has asked all professors to try to incorporate this book into their
classes.

The activities here ask the students to
1) complete a survey regarding their knowledge of and attitudes about cell research.
2) Read portions of the book and respond via a bog to prompts regarding the role of race, socio-economic status, religion, law
and ethics
3) Complete a web using Mindmeister
4) Complete a timeline regarding the six categories listed above in item #2
5) Complete the survey again after reading the entire text.
