Stephen L. Glasior, Ph.D. University of New Orleans (Stephen Xootfly in SL) "Career and Seminal Contributions to Genetics of Barbara McClintock" Put on your "jumping jeans" (well in this case "jumping genes") and join us for the first talk of the Women in Science, Tech & Medicine. Stephen Xootfly will be lecturing on one of the few female Nobel laureates in the sciences, Barbara McClintock. TODAY, Friday, February 11, 2011 5 PM SLT, Space Destiny http://slurl.com/secondlife/Space%20Destiny/91/86/25

"Biological R/evolutions" by Shannon Bohle, BA, MLIS, CDS (Cantab), FRAS, AHIP Synthetic Life - Film Art for the UWA Competition, MachinimUWA II Art of the Artists I saw when visiting the exhibits, sea creatures: the shark, the jellyfish, and the octopus, and I built upon the concept of genetic manipulation and mechanical hybridization. Life began in the ocean, so I wondered how this might be significant not only for the evolution of marine life but future generations of human life as well. I've included audio commentary from some of the leading scientists of our day. Jacques Cousteau explored the oceans and had a vision for preserving them, unchanged in their pristine condition, for future generations. James D. Watson, who with Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins, and the team of Rosalind Franklin and Ray Gossling, discovered the structure of DNA and later unraveled its method for reproduction which led to the ability to alter DNA sequences in the laboratory at the molecular level. J. Craig Venter not only sequenced the genome but created the first synthetic biological lifeform. These scientists also realized the power of modern media and communication and understood the technical details of modernization. Cousteau used film. Watson realized that the DNA code was "digital" in nature. Venter used cryptography and steganography to place a code within codes of a new lifeform, a new self-generating species, whose Adam and Eve-like "parents" were a computer and raw chemicals. Since the age of agriculture and selective breeding, humans have altered life and manipulated the gene pool. As our technology improves, how will we and the world we live in appear in the future?

Virtual World Best Practices in Education (VWBPE) 2010 Date/Time: Friday March 12 at 4:00 p.m. PST/SL Location: VWBPE West 1 Panelists: Real life name: Daniel Laughlin, Ph.D. (Chair) Contact: Email address: daniel.d.laughlin@nasa.gov Avatar name: Greyark Hightower Real life name: Mary Anne Clark, Ph.D. Avatar name: Max Chatnoir Real life name: Debbie Denise Reese, Ph.D. Avatar name: Frecka Salsman Real life name: Carolyn Lowe, Ph.D. Avatar name: Clowey Greenwood Panel Title: SciLands Best Practices in Education Panel and Discussion Panel Description: The SciLands is a mini-continent and user community in the virtual world platform Second Life devoted exclusively to science and technology. There are over 20 science and technology related organizations in the SciLands, including government agencies, universities and museums. SciLands members have regular meetings in Second Life where they share ideas, help each other, and plan future projects. Our panel will be composed of representative from SciLands islands that conduct and study education in Second Life. Members of the panel will briefly present on their projects and the best practice lessons learned at Biome, Genome, MoonWorld and NASA eEducation islands. Participants will be better prepared to plan their own educational activities in Second Life and similar virtual worlds based on the combined experience shared by the panelist. Include links to relevant Web sites or electronic copies of the materials you will share Biome Island: http://slurl.com/secondlife/BIOME/42/57/70 Genome Island: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Genome/120/145/54 MoonWorld http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2010/pdf/1439.pdf http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2009/pdf/2229.pdf  http://moonworld.cet.edu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXpTKp35clg http://slurl.com/secondlife/MoonWorld/173/173/319/?title=Welcome%20to%20MoonWorld NASA eEducation Island: http://slurl.com/secondlife/NASA eEducation/128/159/43 http://www.nasa.gov/education/LT SciLands • www.scilands.org Short Bio of Panelist: Real life name: Daniel Laughlin, Ph.D. (Chair) Real life organization: NASA Learning Technologies, University of Maryland Baltimore County Email address: daniel.d.laughlin@nasa.gov Avatar name: Greyark Hightower Real life name: Mary Anne Clark, Ph.D. Real life organization: Texas Wesleyan University Email address: mclark@txwes.edu Avatar name: Max Chatnoir Real life name: Debbie Denise Reese, Ph.D. Real life organization: Wheeling Jesuit University Center for Educational Technologies, NASA-sponsored Classroom of the Future Email address: debbie@cet.edu Avatar name: Frecka Salsman Real life name: Carolyn Lowe, Ph.D. Real life organization: Northern Michigan University Email address: clowe@nmu.edu Avatar name: Clowey Greenwood Published on Slideshare with permission of the participants.
