Created from the ground up to make the most of today's multimedia technology, it provides a rich learning experience and a wealth of valuable information and materials -- including interactive models that allow learners to study dynamic systems, detailed maps, and links to resources on the World Wide Web -- that build upon and enhance traditional approaches to the subject.Conserving Earth's Biodiversity is a pioneering educational tool based on the teachings and writings of renowned biologist Edward O. Wilson, and created and developed by science educator Dan Perlman.The program's insightful pedagogy combined with a unique use of multimedia makes it an ideal complement to any standard textbook.
