[bionet.users.addresses] Kids in Space

HARPER@CSC.FI ("Robert Harper Finland", CSC) (04/08/91)

I just posted three articles about a joint project between schools
in the USA and Finland. Why????

Well it seems to me that even school children can put together an
interesting educational exercise that would put many real research
workers to shame. How many biologists for example know of the existance
of IRC ( Internet Relay Chat ) and how many would be able to use it?

For me it is very encouraging that school children have an adventurous
spirit, and want to explore the possibilities offered by the international
computer networks. It is precisely this type of education that will change
the face of science, and when a new generation of young researchers put into
practice what the learn today for fun, then maybe even the BioSci network 
will be revolutionized.
