Dear planty-bodies,
I am in the process of accumulating plant science education Web
sites in order to put together a semi-comprehensive list for our science
education centre's Web site. The centre - known as the Green Machine - is
located in Canberra, Australia and specialises in promoting plant science
to high schools and colleges. Fore example we run a national Fast Plants
program, a national gene technology program and are visited by 1000s of
students and teachers each year.
Currently we are putting together a plant science research kit for
schools which incorporates a number of resources (kits are on loan to
schools around the country on a semester basis). One of the resources we
wish to provide is a list of Web sites which may be relevant to plant
science educators.
If you know of any sites ... or indeed host a site .. which may be
of relevance to plant science education .. (esp. at the secondary level)..
could you please reply directly to me with the URL.
I will collate the responses and post a list on Plant Education news site.
If you wish to see what the Green Machine is about... our URL is:

Thanks in advance
